CARE (USA) Program Officer interview questions

Communication was not optimal from organization. Applied online and completed a lengthy pre-screen assessment. Invited for an interview. Three weeks after the interview, completion of background check, and reference check I had still heard nothing, so I contacted the HR representative. She replied to tell me that they had gone with another candidate. I completely understand that they went with someone else based on qualifications, etc. However, I do feel that once someone has gotten to the interview/background check/reference check stage, at least a courtesy email is appreciated if that candidate isn't chosen. From application to final word from HR, the process took two months.

The process took nearly two months, and included two interviews, a written component, a background check, and a ridiculous amount of sitting around, waiting. Interview covered the basics: talked about my experience, why I wanted the position, etc.
