Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Peace Corps (Chicago, IL)
Colloquio
Pretty straight forward. Lots of questions about people management, Volunteer management, relationship management, etc. At the end of the day, working at Peace Corps is majority creating, maintaining, and nourishing relationships between Volunteers, communities, stakeholders, partners, etc.

Colloquio
The interview was conducted with three regional directors and lasted approximately 45 minutes. The questions were closely aligned with the responsibilities of the position, focusing on leadership competencies, management approaches, and decision-making under pressure. A significant portion of the conversation also centered around safety and security protocols, particularly regarding managing risk in challenging or high-security contexts. They asked for examples of past leadership experiences, how I would navigate team dynamics across diverse cultural settings, and how I would handle crisis situations. Overall, the interview felt structured but conversational, allowing space to both answer questions and reflect on broader organizational priorities.

First round was with three Chiefs of Programming of Training. Asked 9 questions. The situational questions were mostly "tell us a time when you have done X" although there were about 2 of "what would you do in this situation" questions.
There is a second level of interviews with country posts (Country Directors, DMOs, DPTs, Host Country Staff) and this occurs after you pass the first level with DC headquarter staff.
