Interviewed Sep 2011 in Washington, DC (took a day)
I just had this interview today so I am not sure what will come of it. The interview itself lasted about an hour and was very tough. Questions asked included:
1) Why are you interested in Ashoka and/or social entrepreneurship?
2) What do you think social entrepreneurs have to offer that other organizations (ie. charities or religious organizations) don't?
3) Is there a social change project that you have been particularly impressed by?
4) Tell me about a place/group in your background that has been changed because you were there?
5) Various other questions about projects I had specifically worked on and what I would have done to increase the scope of those projects etc.

Interviewed May 2009 in Arlington, VA (took 4+ weeks)
Interviewed one-on-one with five different people. Interviewers did not care whether I was qualified for the position. Much more focus was placed on whether I was "entrepreneurial."

Interviewed May 2009 in Washington, DC (took 2 months)
Slightly disorganized and very very long. But exciting. Forces you to get to know more about yourself.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Arlington, VA (took a day)
The interview process was fine, but the followup was awful. They had me come in for 2 hours and instead of getting a call letting me know the outcome, I get an email. Not very polite.
