I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at The Bertelsmann Foundation (Washington, DC) in Feb 2015
Interview
The process was fairly long. I sent in an application in the beginning of my school semester and did not hear back for a few weeks. Eventually I came in for a one-on-one interview, which was relaxed and open. Due to technical difficulties on their side, I did not start for another month. During this time period I followed up 1-2.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview was mostly behavioral questions, specifically focused on my previous research, think tank, and regional experience.
