I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at The Carter Center in Jul 2014
Interview
I applied for a fall internship during the summer by completing the online application. In July, I received a call from the Director of Educational Programs to schedule an appointment with the program that I applied for. I had the interview later that week. It was a phone interview with most of the staff members. The next week, I received an offer. I believe it is the same process (at least for my program) with phone interviews/whole staff because during the end of my internship, they did the same thing when they were choosing new interns.
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.
