Questions d'entretien chez International Rescue Committee

The position advertised was a full-time 12 month contract with benefits. I had applied online, and a recruiter contacted me via email and asked to schedule a phone call. I spoke with them on the phone, and then we had scheduled a zoom to talk about the role. After those two conversations, the recruiter had sent me a questionnaire to complete in which I would answer how I would approach certain situations. You could consider it a quiz. After that, they had scheduled another panel interview with around 3 other employees. After that, the recruiter had asked for 5 references. I provided their information and each reference responded in a timely manner. This whole process, the 3 interviews, quiz, and reference check took around 3 weeks. A week later, I had reached out to the recruiter for an update. They had told me that the position I had interviewed for was no longer available, but they had an alternate position that was available. This position had the exact same duties as the one I had applied for except: it was a 8 month contract, and it was not eligible for benefits. l o l. What a waste of everyone’s time. No explanation or apology despite a month of cooperation and effort on my end. Apply somewhere else.

The interview process was very straight forward. I met with an HR person for a screening interview and then was asked to do a second interview with employees at the IRC.
