I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at World Bank Group in May 2020
Interview
Applied in the early February and received interview invitation 3 months later. Went through 3 rounds online panel interviews within a month. I was promised to be informed within 1-2 weeks after the last round. However, I have been for 1 month without any updates. Then I happened to know from someone inside that they hired someone else but still no formal emails telling me that. The hiring process of the World Bank/IFC is always frustrating. Keeping your words and informing candidates timely your decision (given only few candidates can make to the last round) are not hard. Please value candidates’ efforts and time. Don’t just threw them an automatic reply 3 months after the interview saying you’re not considered.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Background check, go through resume, behavioral questions about personality, future plans, fundamental economics concepts etc.
I interviewed at World Bank Group (Washington, DC)
Interview
Smooth and fair. The interviewers were extremely technical in their approach, and asked questions to ensure I would be a good fit for the technical work at the WB. Overall, the process was very positive and I would recommend.
Process was smooth, it was composed of a first panel interview (personal and behavioural questions) followed by a writing test and a final interview with the director of the department
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at World Bank Group (São Paulo, São Paulo)
Interview
Processo extremamente demorado ( 8 meses) sem feedback do processo, sem calendário para próximos passos, dados imprecisos que deram diversas vezes, fazendo que seria x e depois era y. Processo confuso e desorganizado.
