I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Pew Charitable Trusts (Washington, DC) in Jul 2011
Interview
Confusing. I came to Pew through a staffing agency and was promised a certain salary if I signed on full time after 6 weeks. I interviewed with a Deputy Director for less than one hour and was hired as a contractor less than 7 days later and went through almost no onboarding. I chased a full time offer for 6 months before a job position was created for me. They expected me to do a lot financially impactful work as a contractor and did not ask me to sign any privacy agreements. The offer came back $7,000 less than my minimum ask.
The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Pew Charitable Trusts
Interview
First was with the HR person for 20 minutes
2nd was with 2 higher ups
3rd was with the program manager
Come prepared with questions it's a very long interview process.

Question 1
When did you go against the grain? and how did it turn out successful?
I applied online. I interviewed at Pew Charitable Trusts
Interview
One round as a phone screening, very low stress and she said on the spot that I would be moving forward and speaking with the hiring manager. About 45 minute with the hiring manager, we had a great conversation that was very natural and it was clear she herself had a lot of experience and knew how to interview. Was expecting to hear back within 2 weeks and even reached out to the HR person, but heard nothing back. This is my first time ever being ghosted by a company, and with the resources they have, you would think they'd at least respond to an email.
1) phone screening interview- just a short call to make sure I was interested in the position 2) virtual interview with direct manager- one hour to discuss my resume and the job in greater detail 3) virtual interview with 3 people- asking questions about my experience and interest in the role
