Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at OMD.
Account Executive
The process was friendly and informative, with regular feedback and the opportunity to meet different people and ask my own questions. The questions were a good mix of past experience and future aspirations.
- Why did you apply?
Account Executive
It was a very efficient and straightforward process- I saw the job posted on Seek then applied via their website. Within a few days I was contacted by the hiring manager to set up an initial phone screening interview. She asked what I was looking for and described a bit more about the role. I then was scheduled in for an online interview the following week with two Account Managers. The interviewers were friendly, explained to me more about the role and the team I'd be working with, and ask me questions related to my experience. I was then offered the role over the phone the next day by the hiring manager. Overall, a very transparent, easy, and positive experience!

Business Development Executive
There was an HR round where they were very specific about discussing the role and checking how we fit in, what our expectations are and right to work etc. Then there were Team Managers from different teams who discussed previous roles and asked situation-based/get-to-know-you questions. The team is very patient with the hiring process.
