I applied through other source. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Dentsu (Ciudad de Mexico) in Aug 2018
Interview
El proceso inicialmente fue muy acelerado, con muchas entrevistas y posteriormente se convirtió en un martirio donde la falta de visibilidad, comunicación y transparencia desde la compañía volvieron altamente dudosa la propuesta y consecuentemente el modo de trabajo en caso de emplearme allí. Sinceramente no fue una buena experiencia.

Question 1
Que experiencia tenía, por qué motivo me interesaba ingresar a la oficina Mexicana, etc.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Dentsu
Interview
The HR who first reached out to me was quite discriminatory. I hesitated to continue because it was a 🚩, but I still went through the interview with the Hiring Manager & other Department Heads
I interviewed with two people via a video call, excluding the initial phone call with the recruiter. The entire interview process took roughly an hour and I spoke with senior leads on the team.
Had one round of interview, with the HR. Most basic of questions, pertaining to prior experience, visa status, timelines, compensation et.al.
He highlighted the interview process. And then complete silence for more than 1.5 months. Despite multiple follow-ups.
Not surprisingly, as one of their other recruiters in Singapore has done exactly the same in the past. Most unpleasant, incompetent, and unprofessional set of individuals. Stay away from dentsu!
