I applied online. I interviewed at Publicis Groupe in May 2025
Interview
I had back to back interviews with the Director and Vice President of the account I would be working on. They both asked about my previous work experience and how it would be applicable for the role i was applying to.
3 rounds I talked to supervisor, Associate director, and director. They were friendly, but direct in their questions. They also have time for me to ask questions back. Behavioral questions for the most part.
The interview process was slow. I spoke to the recruiter twice before meeting with an actual team member. First time said I wasn’t a good fit then wanted to interview me again for the same role.
