Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Weber Shandwick.
Client Experience Manager
I had an initial chat with the recruiter. Then, I interviewed with my direct managers. Following that, I met with leads on the account. There was also a writing/strategy test that felt pretty substantial. It involved creating a media strategy, developing a mini-media list, writing a media pitch, identifying and vetting a mini-list of influencers, and finding recent news clips on a specific topic.
- Could you share an example of a project you've managed?
- What are your thoughts on leading a team and mentoring junior employees?
- Do you have examples of media placements or coverage you've achieved?
Office Manager
The interview process was thoughtful and well structured. It started with an initial conversation to understand my background and what I was looking for, and to give me a clear picture of the role and the firm.
- They asked me about the kind of environment where I do my best work, and what tends to hinder me from doing good work.
Senior Manager
I had two phone interviews over two weeks, then in-person interviews where I met my potential coworkers. I was asked about my past work, working style, and ideal working environment.
- What aspects of PR do you find appealing, and what contributions could you make to Weber Shandwick?
