I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at IMF (Washington, DC) in Mar 2017
Interview
Applied online and received an email stating I was qualified but needed to take a skills assessment test online which tested my basic Microsoft office skills including excel functions and advanced word operations such as mail merge. I was then contacted maybe two or three weeks later to set an interview. The interview was with a panel, four individuals from the department that I was a candidate for. They asked about my qualifications and experience and how it related to the role of a Staff Assistant at the IMF. A week and a half later they contacted me asking for information on three references. I was then called and conditionally offered a position about 3 days after the initial reference check. I say conditionally because they still must conduct a background check and an additional reference verification for three more references as well before the offer becomes finalized.

Interview
HR reached out after 1 month of applying to schedule an interview. One round of interview with the team was performed before being offered the position. Overall very positive, but my virtual interview link didn't work the first try and I had to join via the new link, but everything else went well and was very organized.
