So there were 5 steps in the interview process. First up was an HR phone interview, then I had an interview with the HR and the brand manager. After that, there was an aptitude test. This was followed by an interview with the head of the category. The final stage was a 1 and a half hour case study/interview.

Behavioral Presentation
I had a call with a recruitment agency, then a casting the next day. After that, I had an interview with the Philip Morris team, involving Q&A and a personal interview with two Philip Morris employees and someone from the recruitment agency. It lasted 3.5 hours. Five weeks later, I still hadn't heard back, so I called the agency who told me I wasn't selected. The interview was interesting, it's a shame the company doesn't inform candidates, especially after a 3.5-hour session. They didn't keep their promise about letting us know.
