Very friendly staff and more casual than usual. They want to know what you have to offer to the company, so pull from past experiences. Qualify yourself as much as possible.
Describe your biggest challenge and explain why you found that particular situation challenging and what steps you took to navigate it. Explain what the outcome of your actions was and what lessons you took away.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Weber Shandwick (New York, NY) in Nov 2023
Interview
Got a HR phone call as first round of interview but the recruiter seemed less than enthusiastic to talk to me. It was mostly focused on running through my resume than going over the job opportunity.
