Hogarth Worldwide Account Manager Interview Questions
& Process

So the interview process is all online. First you'll have a chat with the talent acquisition team, they'll tell you all about the job and the role. They also want to get to know you better and hear about your background. If that goes well, you'll then have an online interview with the account director.

I first applied for a different Account Manager job but then they also suggested I go for this one. The interview felt like it went on longer than expected and there were only 2 interviewers when it was supposed to be 3. During the interview, I was asked what attracted me to this role, which was tough to answer since it was suggested to me by the person in charge of hiring. At the end, like with other candidates, I was told they were interviewing others and that the hiring manager would contact me about the result. A couple of days later, I got a call, voicemail, and email from the hiring manager asking me to call them back with an update. Unfortunately, I dropped my phone over the weekend and the screen went black, so I couldn't use it. I asked if they could just email me the feedback, but the hiring manager just said to call them when I had a chance, completely ignoring my broken phone situation. When I explained my phone was being repaired and I'd have it back in a week, they went completely silent. I don't get why feedback can't be emailed, and their lack of flexibility in giving me an update was not helpful.

The interviewer seemed condescending. She started nice but then sounded bored and annoyed as I shared my experiences. When I mentioned my salary expectations (SGD1000-1100), she rudely stated the market rate is SGD800-1000, implying I was unaware despite knowing it and just wanting to aim high. I also confirmed my availability and commitment period, offering to send my class schedule as I'm an undergraduate, but she dismissively replied 'no thanks, full-time only' in a rude tone.
