I applied in-person. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at World Bank Group (Washington, DC) in Feb 2015
Interview
My interview went very smoothly. I actually was asking managers for recommendations and it turned out that they were looking for my skills. I talked about my skills and past experiences. They also asked me to give them some time to go over their budgets.

Other Short-term Consultant (STC) interview reviews for World Bank Group
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.

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.
