Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at UM.
Intern
I spoke with 6 people from various teams. Each person had a few questions for me. It was a relaxed 10-minute chat with each of them, and they made an effort to put me at ease.
- What draws you to the media industry?
- Can you share an instance of failure?
- Can you share an instance of success?
Intern
First, there was a short phone call, then I went in for an in-person interview. For the face-to-face, we went over my resume and chatted about my past experience.
- Could you walk us through your resume?
Intern
Had an initial phone call with HR where they wanted to know about my interests. Then went to their New York office for an in-person interview. It was a round-robin where I met 4 different hiring managers for 20 mins each. The questions were pretty general and it was interactive.
- Can you go through your resume for me?
- Why are you interested in media?
- Tell me about your favorite ad campaign from recent times.
