Pre interview based on 4 questions. Asks about your strengths and basic marketing knowledge. Then a face to face interview that includes PT presentation. Have not been through the whole process yet.
They had online group interviews with 3-4 people, questions were relatively easy with only some questions where you had to think. There were why you wanted to work there, a bit about yourself, any experience in the industry etc.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Kantar
Interview
3 Step process. Hiring Manager Interview Project or Task Interview (Panel) Meet the team Interview (Panel) The first step was a normal competency based interview with the hiring manager to understand more about your experience ans whether the role is the right fit for you. Second was a task. I was tasked with researching what marketing effort had been put behind a specific product and to evaluate what more could have been done or what I would improve. Third was a panel interview with two more stakeholders with more competency based questions.
