I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at WPP (Kansas City, MO) in Oct 2014
Interview
Two round interview. Fairly informal and relaxed. Process is easier if you have an employee referral. Tip: get a firm offer and conversion date in writing if starting as a contractor.

Question 1
Talk us through a time you've had to prioritise a product feature over another and how did you approach this.
Medium but strategic interview. Multiple rounds of interactions. Interactions mostly about the work experience and skill set possessed by the candidates. Your past work experience plays an important role in cracking the interview.
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at WPP (São Paulo, São Paulo) in Feb 2024
