Interview
I applied for an intern and had an interview. After 3 months of internship, if you pass the internal(team) selection process, you have an interview with the CEO. It is said that sometimes, when there are too many interns who passed the internal selection process, CEO makes them to make a presentation about marketing strategies as well as the interview.

Applied through linked in with simple questions and resume upload. Never heard back despite being qualified for the job (3+ years at another agency with similar clients). Shocked to not even receive a regret to inform you email
Composto por diversas etapas mas no geral o processo fluiu bem e sempre recebi as respostas rápido. RH bem atencioso e comunicação por email funcionou bem. No geral achei um processo criterioso mas não exatamente difícil
