Penguin Random House has always been a tough one to get into. Interviewed for associate publicist in the children's side and made it to last round of interviews then didn't hear back for a month or two. Next thing I know HR messaged me saying that the position was split into 2 roles assistant and publicist role but because I was one of the 2 candidates that they were considering the team wanted me to consider RE-INTERVIEWING for the assistant role. Interviewed with one new person and never heard back at all.
