I applied online. I interviewed at Peace Corps.
Interview
One interview pre-Covid. It was fairly simple they sent most of the questions to you before hand so you have time to study. Interviewer never actually worked for peace corps though so he couldn't really answer my questions which was awkward.

They provide you with a list of questions/topics beforehand. The interview was over video chat and it was slightly awkward since the interviewer had to write down each of my answers.

I made it to the final round of the interview process. All the questions were provided prior to the interview. We are advised that it will be a video interview however mine ended up being strictly audio.

Interview
1.5 hours, interviewer was very serious. Covered background, interest in Peace Corps, and how you are prepared to deal with the challenges of peace corps. Overall was not too difficult.

Interview
The interview was very straightforward. All of the questions they typically pull from can be found in online blogs. They really want you to draw from your prior experiences to show that you're prepared for the living situation of being a PCV and can adapt to working across language and cultural barriers in an unfamiliar setting. It helps to do some research on the host country and your specific role as well. They will ask what other resources you have consulted, so read some blogs on their site, go to an info session, talk to former PCVs, etc. beforehand that you can mention.

One-on-one video call with a placement officer. The interviewer made you feel like you were doing poorly, possibly on purpose to see how you would handle it. Apparently everyone else in my cohort felt the same way.
