I interviewed at International Rescue Committee (Elizabeth, NJ) in Apr 2021
Interview
Consisted only of behavioral questions. barely lasted 10 minutes. The interviewer had to reschedule and did not have her video on. When I asked her for the next steps, she reluctantly said she would pass my application onto HR. Interviewer overall seemed irritated during the interview. I received an automated email after I sent my thank you letter that they went in another direction.

Question 1
Describe a time you asked your supervisor for feedback
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at International Rescue Committee
Interview
I had 3 interviews. First with HR she was nice and asked easy questions. I was then sent a test which I found easy and was able to complete it within allocated time. My last interview was with the hiring manager. After that I got the usual automated emails being told I was not succesful.
I applied online. I interviewed at International Rescue Committee (New York, NY) in Jan 2020
Interview
Kafkaesque, Hugely inconvenient, Waste.of.time.
Their expectations of an applicant were onerous, including asking the final three (not two, not one, but three people) to submit references via a cumbersome website. Really not terribly impressed with the recruiter who started the phone interview using prompts for a different role (She apologized and had to reschedule to the next day. Then we did the phone interview again later and she acted as if I hadn't heard some of the canned questions the day before. Bizarre.)
The staff I interviewed with in-person (two meetings back to back) were all professional and really seemed passionate and genuinely good at their jobs. Internal HR Recruiter not so much.
