World Bank YPP 2021
-
There was one guy with bad english claiming he got an interview but someone else claiming that was fake news. Then some reports of perhaps some early invitations issued, but also secondhand. It's unclear, doesn't seem like they've sent yet; I think we would know.
Better learn how to handle criticism as there will be more coming in. Not everyone is kind enough to point out your weaknesses. Instead of feeling offensive, use criticism as a catalyst to improve yourself. Not to mention that the guy might have been spreading false information on this forum (very very likely).
Criticism != hate from a random guy (mostly white cis native English speaker male) in a toxic Internet forum who is “kind enough” to think he is better because of how he writes his obnoxious posts. And who said they haven’t gone through criticism?
That "random guy" is actually a lady. Her skin is not white. Her native language is not English.Then it’s so terrible that you replicate such a patriarchal toxic dynamics of power and domination. I wish truly you never have any position of power. Blessings

From "telling someone that his/her English is bad" to "patriarchal toxic dynamics of power and domination". Uhm...

Friends, lets not make forum toxic.As such there are not many (at least i am not aware of) forums where we can discuss WBG YPP 2021...lets help by sharing what we know, & may be helpful to most of the people here... Targeting a few who are spreading rumours/advertising, if any, will not serve purpose, except to motivate them to do more. There is no authentication anyway, so let each 1 decide what is correct & wrong. Lets try to serve the larger good. :-)

I agree, let’s refocus on the actual YPP process itself.
That said, I do recognise this is a difficult time for everyone. Please let us all work on our own problems before projecting to others. Please get the emotional support to make it through this challenging time. I would also highly recommend looking into the topic of Childhood Emotional Neglect (see Running on Empty by Dr Jonice Webb).
There is enough pain in the world, let us work on ourselves so we don’t add more unnecessary pain to ourselves and others.
Wishing everyone well. And please get some rest!!

Maybe we haven't been selected for the interviews, given that around 2000 persons are usually requested the LORs. Not too sure at this stage whether the invites for the interviews have been sent or not.
I guess we can't rule this possibility out... But wouldn't we had received a rejection email by this point then?

Hi all,
I think there is no need for us to worry about the delayed process as it is not within our control. Sooner of later we will hear back from the WBG.
Meanwhile, I found an interesting read : "https://www.gatesfoundation.org/goalkeepers/report/2020-report/#GlobalPerspective"
It is really informative and meaningful to learn about the current crisis in the world.
If you are so stressed out, I suggest that you find some hobbies to try (dancing, singing, painting, etc...), or even go out for a walk. Those would surely help.
All the best :)

Would it be so hard for the WBG to send an automatic email to all candidates informing of the delay? Their handling of the delay (understandably caused by covid) is just tragic.
If an automatic email is too much hustle, a simple regular update on the website FAQ would do. Last update was in August which by no means classifies as a regular and timely update.
