First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at World Bank Group.
Executive Assistant
I had a really good interview for an Executive Assistant job at the World Bank. The whole thing was super organized and felt very professional. There were seven people on the panel, and they were from different departments, which shows how they work together there. It was formal, but the interviewers were nice and respectful, and tried to make me feel comfortable.
- Can you give examples of how you've solved problems at the last minute?
Administrative Assistant
When I arrived at the office, there were about 2-3 people in person and 2 people joining online. The interview felt smooth, and everyone was really nice and polite. I think it's important to stay calm and focus on answering the questions.
- Could you start by telling us a bit about yourself?
- In five years, where do you envision yourself being?
- How would you approach handling this assignment?
Administrative Assistant
Got the call usually within a week of applying. I had a panel of 4 women interviewing me. One was the director, two I think were in departments I would have worked in and another was a remote analyst. They asked general questions and it was pretty lighthearted. It was a quick one, around 45 minutes.
- How do you handle doing the same tasks over and over and keep your motivation up when you have a deadline?
- Can you tell us a little about yourself, and do you have any travel or international experience you'd like to share?
