The interview was straightforward and carried out remotely. Two interviewers joined the call, and started with a brief conversation about the role, the organization and the internship structure. It took approximately 10-15 minutes with time for questions at the end.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at WIPO (Geneva) in Jul 2025
Interview
Great interview process, fair and short exam (45 minutes), smooth communication with the hiring team, and excellent feedback from the managers.
I didn't get an offer in the end, but the team had very positive feedback (said that another candidate simply had a few more years of experience with direct relevance to the role).
