Diffusion PR Interview Questions
& Process

It was a pretty standard interview with competency-based questions. If you're looking to get into PR, nothing really threw me off. The interviewers were super nice and made me feel comfortable. The whole thing took about an hour, and we spent maybe fifteen minutes at the end talking about things like work culture, benefits, and the organization.

applied and heard back fast, interview was set up quickly too. the first interview was just normal questions about my background and if I was interested in the job. then there was a second interview that was in person and I had to do a project for it. each interview had a project and I had to turn something in.

Incredibly drawn out interview process. For me, it took over two months of interviews that I was told went well, but still resulted in no offer. In fact, my point of contact with the company became unresponsive when I emailed to ask for updates on a decision after the final interview. This is unfortunate considering how much time and effort I gave to interviewing with Diffusion. Furthermore, lack of communication internally means you will essentially do the same interview 4 times with different members of the team. They will also ask you to prepare a sample pitch deck after the second interview, to present during the third. Those looking to work with an agency may be better off looking where the hiring process is handled more professionally.

I had an over the phone initial call/interview which I felt went well. The interviewer was kind and informative. They stated that regardless of if I move on or not, I will hear back from them within a week. After two weeks of no response, I decided to follow up with an email. Which I still never got a response to. Felt very unprofessional and honestly disheartening to be ghosted after speaking on the phone with them. They answered my application within 12 hours but couldn’t be bothered to at least send a rejection email after the interview.
