Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Wieden+Kennedy.
Designer
I had two interviews with some directors. We talked about my work and experience, and they were nice and friendly. They asked me some questions and I had a chance to ask questions too.
- What makes you want to join W+K?
Senior Designer
The interview process was pretty straightforward conversations. I thought it was odd they wanted someone crafty in addition to the design role. Also, no signing bonus and no relocation package. I get you’re W+K but pay us enough to make a move for you guys.
- What's your expected salary?
Designer
I interviewed a few times with the studio managers and creative directors. It took about two years to get hired, but I think that's more about when they were looking to hire than if they wanted me. They were intimidating but nice.
- Can you describe your design approach?
- How do you deal with criticism of your work?
- Can you share a project you found particularly rewarding?
