MSF/DWB application, interview experiences.

Hi everyone. Hope you are all having a good day.

i attended a recruiting session with MSF. They indicated that they were generally interested in my field, skill set. I'm in contact with them and will submit application pretty soon, but wanted to reach out to people not only for "tips" etc., but also for any experiences you may have had.

what did they like or not like when you spoke to them? Did they ask you to sharpen any specific skills or look for specific certificates etc.? They really emphasized that even with good skills etc that they can only accept a tiny % of applicants, so I'd like to make sure that I am meeting their needs and will be able to make strong contributions if am fortunate enough to be chosen. But it's hard to prepare when u don't know where you are going etc....

any returned volunteers out there in allnurses? Any still on their roster?

thanks for any information you can offer!

I am an aspiring MSF applicant as well, so I am hoping some others will jump in to provide us with answers to your questions.

Thinking about maybe reposting to international forum?
