I applied online. I interviewed at The Borgen Project
Interview
The interviewing process was very simple, they only asked about information that was on the website and sent out a sort of study guide beforehand. The interview itself was very low-stress and was around half an hour.

Question 1
They asked about specific information on the website.
The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at The Borgen Project (Jersey City, NJ) in Oct 2023
Interview
The interview was honestly quite robotic, and read like a question and answer. They asked about how my experience would influence my work in the program and what challenges I hope to overcome through the internship.

Question 1
What are your weaknesses and how will you overcome them during your internship?
Very nice interviewer, not intimidating in any way. Good idea to read up about Borgen on their website and prepare to talk about your job experiences and why you want to help.

Question 1
Tell me a little about yourself and why you want to work here.
I submitted a writing sample after submitting my application, then heard back about a week later about an interview. The interview was about 25-minutes, and I was offered the position the next day. The interview was simple, asked questions about fundraising and time management. It was all over Zoom.
