      Policy Associate Interview

      Dec 23, 2020
      Anonymous employee
      Washington, DC
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Aspen Institute (Washington, DC) in Dec 2020

      Interview

      The process was very organized and transparent. They used an outside organization to recruit me through LinkedIn - I had two screening calls with the recruiters, then was asked to provide some work and writing samples, including a policy test. I then had two 45-60 minute panel interviews which delved into my knowledge of the content as well as potential work scenarios. The process was fairly rigorous however I found it was on-par with other policy jobs in the region and the process was very quick and they provided a clear timeline.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      (1) If we asked you to create an event based on X policy issue, how you would proceed, and what order would you look up existing laws, experts in the field, and policy recommendations? (2) What is your experience managing up? (3) How you would pitch an additional roundtable on a policy trend if the team is alreay stretched thin?
