I applied through college or university. I interviewed at World Bank Group in Jan 2015
Interview

Premier entretien téléphonique avec deux interlocuteurs de l'équipe du projet auquel j'avais postulé. Ensuite une semaine plus tard ils m'ont envoyer la consigne pour un devoir a faire dans une heure

Question 1
Comment trouver un pont de données précis dans une base de données ?
One round of interview. Go over your resume. Several BQs. And asking you coding / technical skills. Writing/Coding sample after the interview. Straightforward and chill. Much better than rounds of back and forth interviews in the private sector
The first round was a panel with 4 different people from the unit. The second round is with the hiring manager. Communication was clear. Some hard questions, some easy expected questions.

Question 1
If you were in an elevator with the Bank's President, how would you pitch him to give our unit more funding?
I interviewed at World Bank Group (Washington, DC)
Interview
Pretty standard-behavioral & technical. Depends on the role you’re applying for so know the technicalities of it. I applied for a social protection role that involves use of ai for research- so the knowledge of using ai and of the subject matter was helpful.
