    ADB entry- and senior-level staffing: A conversation with Rajat Nag

    The Asian Development Bank’s hiring focus may be on mid-level professionals, but it remains an attractive employment opportunity for entry-level as well as senior professionals.

    One of the latter is Rajat Nag, an ADB veteran who joined the bank more than 24 years ago and currently serves as managing director general. Nag has occupied 10 different positions at the multilateral donor, and has been in the engine room of change particularly when it reorganized regional operations in 2001.

    Devex spoke with Nag shortly after ADB unveiled a new human resources strategy in 2010 about how the bank seeks to attract recent graduates, independent consultants and senior-level professionals.
