CBS Interactive Publicist Interview Questions & Reviews

Interviewed Jul 2009 (took a day)

Initial interview was with HR, who conducts the screening process before you move on to the next level of interviewing within the actual department. Questions were generally focused on the big picture, and were standard questions of why you wanted to work withing that company, why you were leaving your current employer. Once that process is completed, you move onto the second round, where another screening process is conducted via phone before moving onto in-person interview. One thing realized is that for an Internet-based company, things are still done rather traditionally, in terms of methods of public relations.
