Interviewed Feb 2010 in Arlington, VA (took 3 days)
Graduate school was notified of positions. Sent resume and cover letter and then received a phone interview. I interviewed with the hiring manager and the HR staff member. It was a very simple process, l likely because it was for a short term internship. Advice to applicant: know the subject matter and the issues that The Nature Conservancy cares about. For a non-profit it has a culture that is quite corporate.

Interviewed May 2008 in Harrisburg, PA (took 3 weeks)
The interview was more technical than other interviews I've been on. The hiring manager and panel were relaxed and friendly, making the interview a comfortable and positive experience. The experience questions were typical of others I've seen, but any candidate not prepared to discuss detailed biological principals and concepts will be caught off guard. I did well in the interview. However, my salary history eliminated me from consideration. The Nature Conservancy is a non-profit and the salaries reflect that.

Interviewed May 2009 (took 5 days)
pretty straight forward; the first phase was a short 30 minute phone interview to guage your pulse; second interview was inhouse and consisted of a panel of four people who alternated asking questions. the depth of questioning was surprising and i was not as prepared as i needed to be; i was not surprised when the offer did not follow the interview

Interviewed Nov 2008 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
I was flown in and given a hotel for one night. I gave a scientific presentation relating my work to conservation issues. Then I had two panel interviews consisting of the management at that particular office. The questions were not unusual for a science-based position, but I had to justify how my reserach experience would help in a conservation context. I had prepared using the book "the 60 Second Sell", and it helped.
