J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Penguin Random House (Londres, Angleterre) en avr. 2021
Entretien
Overall, the process was a good one and completed in a timely manner. After two weeks of the application closing, I was asked to attend a video interview with two members of the publicity team for one of their divisions. They were extremely welcoming and informative. It gave all parties a chance to get to know each other and discover passions and aspirations. They were true to their word in giving me a response also which is a credit to them and their HR teams.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Mostly behavioural questions eg. Tell me about a time when you've had to manage a lot of things at once and how did you stop yourself from becoming overwhelmed?
What are your aspirations?
What skills/characteristics do you have that can aid in this role?
Can you tell me more about your work experience so far?
Sometimes on a campaign an author may feel overwhelmed or something doesn't quite go to plan, how would you help in this situation?

First, you have a phone call with HR to figure out things like availability, whether or not you can work in the US, what the role consists of, and when you can start working. After that, you have a call with the person who will most likely be your supervisor if you get the job.

The process included multiple rounds of interviews with Vice President and other senior managers, in descending order of company standing. They asked mostly standard questions, and overall created a very conversational and welcoming atmosphere.
