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 questions [1]
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 applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at World Bank Group (Washington, DC) in May 2024
Interview
I took a panel interview at the second round. Basically, they ask me about SQL and finance questions, such as how to create basic SQL queries to pull data and SWAP. Also, some statistics questions, but most of them are very basic
