J'ai passé un entretien chez World Bank Group (Washington, DC)
Entretien
There were several steps in the application process and two of them consisted of interviews. The first one was a panel interview with 4 senior economists in the team and they asked technical questions related to their expertise and contingent events going on in the world at the moment. After each one asked a technical question they then proceeded to ask about my experience and general things about my CV. The second interview was to meet the team and get to meet other senior and lead economists. This second one was more of a chat than a technical interview. They offered me the job at the end of this interview.

Question 1
What is the macroeconomic impact of x event on y countries? How would you conduct and analysis of the situation in x place and quantify the impacts? What is the current state of the market of x, y and z and why?
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.
