I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Climate Policy Initiative (Jakarta) in Dec 2023
Interview
The recruitment process was conducted in several steps. The steps are similar to other companies with comparable or similar roles. The recruitment process was smooth until I got ghosted.
Rejection in the recruitment process is normal. However, employers should consider that candidates put their work and time into the recruitment process. Rejection letters (or at least messages) would be better (even if it's a template)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: some questions about policies related to environment and climate
I had a relatively disappointing experience. While the technical teams were kind and knowledgeable, the recruitment managers were slow to respond and lacked transparency in their communication. My case study was initially scheduled in the wrong time zone and had to be rescheduled multiple times, which added unnecessary stress and length to the process.
