The interview process was well organised and professionally conducted. The recruitment team communicated clearly throughout and took the time to explain the role, expectations, and training structure. The experience felt respectful, supportive, and thoughtfully managed from start to finish.

Behavioral Presentation

It was really informative! We started with an info session, and then had individual interviews. The interview wasn't super hard, mostly just basic stuff like introducing yourself, but they did throw in a couple of interesting, more creative questions.

Behavioral Presentation

The process has been going on for 2 weeks. First, I applied online for the recruitment event. Then, I submitted a questionnaire and a short video of myself. After that, I received an invitation to an in-person event in Jhb, South Africa. The requirements were clearly detailed via email, asking me to prepare a 1-2 minute presentation on one of the artists provided via a link and be ready for a short Q&A. On the interview day, there was a briefing presentation from the PWG team. There were 2 interview rounds: a short 'Get to know YOU' 1-on-1 with a PWG staff member, followed by a presentation phase. We were in pairs of 2 versus 1 recruiter who asked questions about the artist and our suitability for the role, focusing on teachability. Our 'grading' was updated live on a digital sheet, and we were notified within 24 hours about proceeding to the next phase, which includes training and medicals. Our presentations weren't delivered as expected; it turned out to be more of a Q&A session, so knowing the facts about your artist is crucial!

This was a really bad, frustrating, and disappointing hiring experience. They showed no respect or fairness. I had two Skype interviews, got selected, and was asked to submit documentation. I did all the paperwork, medical exams, and even signed the contract. I spent a lot of my own money on this. Then, at the very last minute, they suddenly canceled the hiring process without giving a good reason. I tried contacting the recruiter for three days, but they never got back to me. I lost money, time, and my peace of mind because of all this. I absolutely would not recommend this to anyone. They mess with your feelings.
