I applied online. I interviewed at WME (New York, NY) in Feb 2024
Interview
I had 3 rounds total. One with HR, one with the head of the NY floater program, and the final round was a panel with 3 agents. The first round I was asked 3 questions about WME then 3 behaviorals, 2nd round was only asked two questions then she talked for a while about the program and the different desks, panel round was only 15 minutes but covered a lot of ground. Everyone along the way was super nice and very communicative about when I could expect to hear, next steps, etc.
They like to play games. Will be comically disrespectful of your time and effort and will ghost you even after telling you you'll move forward to the next round of interviews. I've seen the office environment firsthand, most agents are very warm and the assistants are grossly underpaid but wonderful and helpful people. HR is on another planet. They act like this job is saving lives. They are extremely entitled and lofty. Go for it if you want to be given the runaround for years of your life, since the hiring process literally takes a year on average post-strike.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at WME (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2025
Interview
I had a Career call and it was pretty good. i have a connection which was good. it wasn't too bad but it wasn't like a formal interview. more like getting to know what you want to do at wme
Informational call followed by a first round interview request. Told candidates they would be honored to work here because it’s “the Ivy League of agencies” despite “no work life balance” and atrocious pay. Horrible communication, snotty and downright rude HR. Very negative experience overall.
