      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      Interview

      Initial 45 min Zoom interview with HR then a 1:1 interview with the team director about a week later. HR person was friendly and responsive during the first stage. Questions were pretty standard/as expected. In the second interview, the director was rude, interrupted me repeatedly, and ended the meeting abruptly before our scheduled end time. HR person never got back to me.

      Application

      I interviewed at Ford Foundation

      Interview

      The HR and interview process was quite smooth and I appreciated their professionalism. No questions were out of left field and I felt really taken care of by the HR professional on their team.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Very specific role related work and goals for the future. It was much more of a free flowing conversation than me being grilled.
