I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ogilvy (New York, NY) in Feb 2015
Interview
I had a 30 min phone interview with someone in HR for the accounts management internships. She was very nice and was very direct with asking questions. It wasn't one of those interviews where it feels like a conversation the whole time. She asked about 6 questions and then I was able to ask any questions I had.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Ogilvy (Singapore) in Jan 2026
Interview
Great, they did ask me a few critical thinking questions. I had to pause and think for a while. Location of office is at cbd which is convenient, office has pantry and everyone seems rly friendly

Interview
A typical first-round interview where they ask you questions about how you can fit into the role. One of my biggest struggles was the time 30-minute limit and the interviewer taking most of the time.
HR calls you first to ask you about general questions (e.g., explain your experience, why you want to join the company, etc). It is then followed by an opportunity to speak with the team you applied for who ask you more role-specific questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work in an agency? / What do you wish to get out of this internship?
