Psychometric tests followed by a video and a Skype interview. The video interview was the hardest part, as you were not interacting with anyone and made me feel uneasy. The questions were quite personal, as "why do you like marketing?" or "tell us when you showed leadership skills" etc.

Question 1
They asked about my experience and what difficulties I had running campaigns.
The interview process was positive, was a decent length of time and was very clear the whole way through the process. Good experience overall, hard to find a negative. Not too hard but not too easy.
Like any other interview – over zoom, go over a case study. Need to prep a little but but mostly about answering questions with regards to the consumer product and knowing the market demographics inside out.
