I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at IMF in Nov 2025
Interview
It has been such a long process. I applied early August, did a computer based competency test in October, and the first interview in November. After passing that screening interview, I got placed in a pipeline of Admin Coordinator. Each team/department that needs a new admin coordinator will reach out to those pipeline wait listed people and do the final interview before hiring. I'm not sure when they will open up the position. I get to stay in the pipeline for six months.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you prioritize when you are facing tight deadline and multiple tasks.
They asked a lot about my abilities and to give examples but they were very reassuring and gave a lot of opportunity for you to ask questions as well. They seemed very personable and didnt ask traditional questions like what's your weakness? why should we hire you etc.

Question 1
They asked me how did i handle a difficult scenario
internal selection process is relatively quick, from start to finish probably 2 weeks. afterwards it's up to the negotiation between current office and hiring office to decide when to move over
