    Application

    I applied online. I interviewed at International Rescue Committee (United States)

    Interview

    I had a first interview with a recruiter, then an interview with two caseworkers/supervisors from the immigration team. Both were pretty typical, friendly interviews just covering my experiences, interest, etc. They asked for references after the second interview.
