Hi! Indeed nothing. I think the process is really slow because some staff are on vacay... My status of the application has not been updated since last month either.

Anyone who had Prog Policy Officer written test ? It was almost two weeks ago...

I took the written exam for Comms on 31 May and still nothing....so if you took yours only 2 weeks ago, you can relax... ?

I don't know why it's taking them so long!!

Hello everyone,

I took the written assessment for the FIT pool programme policy officer (P3) on the 11th July and nothing yet...

Is there anyone who took the exam the same day in the same situation or you guys got some news?

I'm starting to get desperate...

Thank you in advance

Hello. I also appeared for the P3 written assessment for WFP FIT pool for Finance, in Aug 2018. Till now, have not got any feedback.

- Can someone tel me the further process of Language test and interview.

- I only can speak English and have no knowledge of other languages. SO in that case, what to do?

- How to prepare myself for the language test and interview.

Thanks in advance

You will have 4 steps.

-Language test (Not yet appeared)

- Final interview.

Hi Victor!

I am new around here! Nice to hear that there others on the process!

Congrats for continuing on the process!

As per the language test, I do not think that it is a must. I have checked on an interview WFP made a few months ago, about the FIT Pool process, and they did not mention it. You can check that out on the faceebook of WFP, where there is an interview.

I would like to ask you about the video interview. Can you describe the questions you were asked? 

Thanks in advance!

Hi Jason, 

Regarding the video interview...it was done thru an online software, and basically they ask you 3 basic questions: one motivational, and 2 competency based questions. In my case they asked me to speak about a time when i had a challenging situation at work, and the last one was to speak about a time when i encountered a setback at work.

Hello Jason, You be asked 3 questions. Very simple but you should keep a pen and paper, to summarize what you want to say and then when the recording starts, deliver, like you are sitting in an interview. Keep track of time. Be precise, show that you have knowledge. - Show that you can survive in a difficult environment -  Show that you are the best fit - What you know about WFP

normally it take a month after the video interview. If not, contact WFP about the results.

Radio silence for me too...so the other day I sent them an email email, and they told me that they are still in the process of finalizing the evaluation of the HireVue (video) interviews. 

I guess we just have to wait a bit longer...

Hi everyone,

So I see that you —Ekamax and Markee— have done video interviews (31 July) after the written tests (11 July).....

I have never been invited for a video interview so I guess I did not pass the written assessment.....

Anyway, I also sent them a sort email to get some answers on the written assessment and they said to me that written assessments are still under revision.....who knows...

Cheers
