I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at United States Digital Service (Washington, DC) in Apr 2023
Interview
The interview was challenging, with a mix of EQ and IQ-focused questions.
On the EQ side, I was asked about handling stakeholder conflict, navigating ambiguity within cross-functional teams.
The IQ questions focused more on problem-solving under pressure, including a design exercise that required quick thinking, clear prioritization, and the ability to articulate trade-offs.
