Unorganized and inconsiderate of candidates. You have phone calls, they give you an assignment, you don't get feedback on if the assignment met the mark or fell short and then you don't hear if you're moving on or not.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Specific questions about my understanding of the founder and patriotism.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Daniels Fund in Nov 2022
Interview
First round with HR, then did a project, then had a one on one with the hiring manager, then had a grueling 2+ hour panel interview where I talked to every single person at the company. Turned out I was competing with someone who was an alumni of the scholarship program (I was not) so I couldn't really compete with that. They were very professional/respectful and called to tell me to I would not be receiving an offer. Explained why and mentioned they were impressed by me/my skills. Overall challenging experience but still think highly of the company.

Question 1
What challenges are college students facing today? How many tabs do I have open on my computer? What are those tabs? Experience mentoring a friend or student through a hard time. A lot of other random questions like the most recent book I read, etc.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Daniels Fund (Denver, CO) in Aug 2022
Interview
The application process is somewhat lengthy as there were several questions (5-7) that require a paragraph or so to answer properly. The next step was a phone interview with their hiring team where we reviewed the role and my background. I found that some of the question asked were very hard for a first interview, not your typical interview questions. See below for examples. After that, they have a timed take home assessment where they evaluate your skills. Mine was to create content for various marketing platforms (Facebook, instagram, LinkedIn, Powerpoint, etc.) using a small set of provided images. They did not tell you what programs you were going to need to complete this and I had to download some programs which ate up a lot of allotted time. If you get to this phase, I would suggest asking which programs are required before taking the assessment.

Question 1
Something like: " What institution(s) in the US are changing in a way that you think that they shouldn't and why?" "Do you agree with all 9 of our values? Which of them do you identify with the most and which do you identify with the least and why?" Something like: "Have you ever held a role that required you to display entrepreneurial qualities? What was this role and how did it make you display entrepreneurial spirit?"
