The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Carter Center in Jan 2011
Interview
I filled out an online application and then was contacted to set up a phone interview. There were about five people on their end for the interview which lasted about twenty minutes or so. The people could not have been nicer and that was consistent with the actual internship itself. They asked basic questions to get a feel for me and my basic knowledge as well as my knowledge of The Carter Center itself.
The interview process was fairly straightforward with an invitation for a phone interview. Afterwards, I received a notification 2 weeks after the interview of the result. They asked questions surrounding my previous experience and interest in the organization as well as how my experiences could lend to the specific program or project I was interviewing for.

Question 1
They asked about my previous experiences and interest in the specific program I was applying to.
Standard Interview, few questions total about 20-30mins. They also tailored it to my interests as well, so some of the questions were related to things listed on my resume and things I was invovled in. The overarching theme was how it would make a good fit to be an intern there.
It was very smooth and easy going. They ask about relevant work and study experience. For me it was done through a phone call. Interviewer was very encouraging and also answered all questions about the position and the organisation.
