First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants.
Intern
the interviewer was friendly and they were grateful to have intern applications because they needed some extra help at the time. They were very professional and we had a nice conversation and she had great questions for me
- What sparked your interest in joining USCRI?
Intern
I applied online and about two weeks later, I was called in for an interview. Unfortunately, the two staff members who interviewed me didn't seem to know how to interview well. They gave me a hard time about some things and asked confusing questions. For instance, one interviewer kept pressing me about where I was living at the time. While that's a fair question, it got to a point where I felt it was unprofessional to keep asking after I'd given a good answer and explanation. Overall, it was a frustrating experience, and I got the impression the interviewers weren't very prepared. I was glad not to get an offer. Quick tip: take public transport or get a ride. The parking garage in Crystal City is pricey; I ended up paying over $20 for less than an hour there.
- Can you share something about yourself that would be helpful for us to know before we begin working together?
Intern
I sent in my resume and cover letter. Then I got a call for an interview, and luckily I was in town so I could go. The staff were super friendly and seemed really excited about their work. Two people from the department I was applying for interviewed me, and you could tell they loved what they do.
- Given that your resume suggests you're qualified for a job, what motivated you to apply for an internship instead?
