I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Fifa (Zúrich) in Feb 2014
Interview
I submitted my resume and cover letter and was invited to an interview. The whole process was very frustrating because they said they really liked me and wanted to hire me, but then found out I was not European and lost all interest.
They had a very junior HR representative who may have been intimidated by the visa sponsorship process. Or maybe she just didn't want to have to do work when hiring a European means no work...
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interviewer asked me almost nothing. He talked about himself the entire time (his background, his role, his career aspirations, etc.).
