Behavioral Technical
The interview process was multi-step, consisting of about 5 to 6 rounds. Each round was progressively more technical and challenging than the last. It took a while for them to get back to me after I applied, but after that initial contact, the team was really nice and responded quickly.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview process felt a bit messy and disorganized, making me question the recruiter's organization. They asked for materials but didn't seem to review them before the interview. It was pretty informal, and SYP didn't seem very put-together, which lessened my enthusiasm. The office itself wasn't as impressive as the photos, and the general vibe felt a little flat. Maybe it was just overhyped, but the atmosphere didn't live up to the buzz.

Behavioral Case Presentation
First, I had a phone interview with a strategist, which was a standard screening call. Then, I was given a strategy case study to complete within 48 hours. Finally, I had two in-person interviews at their office. One was with a Creative Director and a Strategist, and the other was with a Strategy Director and a Senior Strategist.
Confirmed questions1 question
- The in-person interviews were focused on assessing cultural fit and team compatibility, so I just needed to be my authentic self.
