    Ask the recruiter: Jobs with the World Bank

    What's the World Bank really looking for in its job candidates? What should consultants and career starters know about networking their way into a job with the world's largest development aid donors? What are the hiring trends for mid-level and private-sector professionals? Get answers to these and other questions by watching the sixth Devex career webinar titled “Ask the Recruiter: Jobs with the World Bank,” now available online.

    By Rolf Rosenkranz // 08 July 2011

    The World Bank offers a multitude of career opportunities — from internships to positions specifically targeting career starters, independent consultants and those looking for staff positions. In fact, the bank tends to hire dozens of people each day — most of them short-term consultants — and it is increasing its presence in crisis and fragile states.

    Want to know more about recruitment at the world’s largest development aid donor? Watch the sixth installment of the Devex Career Webinar Series entitled “Ask the Recruiter: Jobs with the World Bank.” It features an informative presentation by World Bank Senior Recruitment Officer Roberto Amorosino, followed by a question & answer period during which he responds to questions submitted live by Devex webinar participants.

    Learn how to snatch that coveted mid-level post, join the young professionals program or transition from the private sector. Watch the one-hour webinar now by clicking on the video above.
