[quote=Anonymous]It is relatively uncommon to get a WB job off the street. It happens, but it is less common than other routes. Two most common routes are to have a similar job at a similar organization, i.e. a comms officer at UNESCO transitioning into a comms officer role at the Bank, and to start as a short-term consultant, get to know the people and the organization, and transition into a staff role years later. The second option is by far the most common. It took me two years to get to a staff position, but I was very lucky in terms of the business need and fit with the department. [/quote]
