First round in person interview went well; one month later called in for second round interview. Very straightforward - tested my knowledge of policy area. Did not get an offer, but was a close runner up.

I applied online on October 19, 2023. I was contacted via email on October 30 for a virtual interview with the director. The interview was an hour long with the director asking many follow up questions to her previous questions. I was told the role was looking to be filled by January because the current policy advisor was leaving at the end of this year. Next steps would be a meeting with upper management and then a written 3 hour test. I was told I would be updated on the status of the role since the director mentioned a previous candidate had already made it to the second round by now. I did not hear after the interview until I sent a follow up email inquiry about the status since the job posting was still listed. It took almost an entire month to hear back from the organization on any status.
