The process took 3 months. I interviewed at World Bank Group
Interview
One of the most unprofessional organisations I have encountered. HR is very removed from the process and you deal mostly with a PA/receptionist. Their emails are borderline rude and unresponsive. I was told there were close to 1,500 applicants and I made it to the final stage (interview with leader) with 2 others. I asked if they would let me know if I was unsuccessful and hey basically said no. Very odd response given you are in the final 3. After 10 weeks I got an email asking if I was still interested and I found out the first choice bounced. I spoke to a lot of people working there and the organisation sounds horrible. Big egos with no interpersonal skills and bullying is rampant. I respectively declined and they were even ruder. Hung up as I was thanking them for their consideration!
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at World Bank Group (Newyork, Argyll and Bute, Scotland) in July 2025
