I applied online. I interviewed at Brookings Institution (Washington, DC) in Jul 2024
Interview
I only had one interview. It was very straightforward, and it felt like more of a conversation about my experience and interests. After applying, it took around two-three weeks to hear and then another two weeks after the interview until I got the offer.
