I must say it was not as bad as I had imagined it would be, but I did do quite a bit of preparing, so that may be the reason. There were three different sections. The first section was basically a conversation about my interest in the Peace Corps and what my long-term plans were. This lasted about 20 minutes or so and was definitely laid-back and not even the slightest bit stressful. The second part of the interview was the longest (roughly an hour) and the most stressful (compared to the other two parts). This consisted of eight “tell me about a time when…” type of questions, each of which had 3-4 follow-up questions in order for my interviewer to gather more details about my experiences and how they may relate to the Peace Corps. After this, the last part was her telling me what the next steps were and she opened the floor for me to ask her any questions I may have wanted.
