It took quite a while and involved many interviews (some with people I didn't ever interact with in the job), but it didn't feel excessively strenuous. There was not a homework assignment, but some questions required talking through a scenario. Because people are spread out, some of the interviews were over video conference which can be awkward.

They do not often provide visas to international applicants and do not make this clear in the postings. Check before applying. Interview is easy. Be prepared to answer why you are drawn to the Foundation.

I applied online. I interviewed at Gates Foundation in Jun 2016
Interview
At the time of shortlisting I was in Rwanda and the initial shortlist interview was over phone with HR in June 2016 and I was told it will be followed up by second round with the SPO. I was also suggested to ask any known colleague working in the foundation to send a reference note for me. In July 2016, I was informed by HR that I have not been selected for the next round. I was disappointed but have been applying all relevant positions fit to my profile since then. Hoping to get shortlist some day.
