Interviewed Feb 2012 in Toronto, ON (Canada) (took 1 week)
HR in New York called me for a screening interview during a holiday in Canada. It was fine, she asked me some work related questions and even prep me for the one on one that she was able to set me up with the following week.
Interview at the office went fine, I thought, and she seemed interested in me. She also said she needed one asap and that there are a few candidates. But didn't hear back from them and the job is still up after 3months!

Interviewed Jan 2011 in New York, NY (took 5 days)
I got a phone call from an HR person who asked me basic questions (if I was currently working, when am I available) and got a schedule for an in person interview. The one on one interview was very informal. It took place at a cafeteria like location with office tables surrounding the tiny area. Some people were having a meeting and having lunch. It was very tough to concentrate, but that's how it's going to be.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in New York, NY (took a day)
Interview process was pretty horrible. There was never a phone call to speak to me about my experience or salary requirement. Everything was done via email and I was to come in to meet with 5 people in about 3 hours. I thought this was strange that nobody had inquired about my salary and to see if I didn’t sound like an idiot. Well, I went in and most of the interview took place out in the open at the break area. We needed to speak in whisper on some parts of the interview because we were talking about salary. When I was finally asked what I’m currently making, the HR response was “oh…. That’s kind of high”. Seriously! If somebody had spoken to me beforehand, I would not have wasted 3 hours of my time. The space is very small and everybody has a newsstand style small cubicle. The people seemed nice enough but the whole interview process was horrible. I never heard from them and was glad because I was traumatized by the interview process. They seem so disorganized for a decent sized company.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Toronto, ON (Canada) (took 2+ weeks)
I only had 1 phone interview which was delayed by almost 3 weeks because they were clearly vetting other candidates and kept putting me off. Had an interview that felt like it went fine, but then when they were honest with me and told me that they had a candidate in mind, it was clear it was all just a smoke-screen and a waste of my time... easy enough though - too bad it didn't mean more!

Interviewed Apr 2011 in New York, NY (took 1 week)
The interview process was very streamlined and simple for interns. It consisted of a phone screen with a recruiter from HR and then a discussion with someone from the department for which you were interviewing. Interview questions were mostly behavioral and any technical questions to gauge your interest in branding.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in New York, NY (took 1 week)
I was told that I was going for a courtesy interview. When I arrived a very young HR person greeted me and proceeded to interview me. First, she took me to a room that looked like a cafe and was very noisy. When she began interviewing me, I couldnt hear any of her questions. It was very frustrating. This lasted about 25 min. Then at the end of the interview she asked me if I was interested in any jobs posted on the company website. I told her that the person that reached out to me at first specifically told me that they didnt have any jobs availablel at the time. Then towards the end I noticed that her boss...HR Director,w as sitting two tables away supervising the interview. I never heard from them again. Please dont go to any "courtesy interview". They just want to size you up and down to see if your look goes with the company.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took 2 weeks)
The company will conduct a phone interview between you and the HR before scheduling you for an in person interview. The position I was interviewing for had me meet 4 people within the department at 30 minute intervals through the day. I was scheduled to meet with HR, two directors and an individual holding a similar position that I was applying for.
Interview involved situational questions and past accomplishments. Process lasted 2-3 weeks.

Interview process very efficient and straight forward. Office seems very cool, fun, creative, and bursting with energy. The people that work there are obviously very passionate about branding and know their stuff so you should go prepared. Overall, very pleasurable experience.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in New York, NY (took 3+ weeks)
Interbrand definitely makes you jump through hoops. First interview was with the Research Director and then the Director of HR. Questions are along the lines of competency and work skills. Second interview is with people in the department, one of whom will be a research manager as well, to get a better feel for the job. Third interview consists of a presentation for which you will have done data analysis.
Pros: they look at you as a potential candidate and make sure you get a good feel for the office and the environment. Also they make sure you are comfortable with the job being asked of you.
Cons: Interview process extremely long and spans over a number of days, with approximately a week or 10 days in between.
Company is full of a number of people who are very intelligent. Some people have a long tenure - either they really like the job or are very good at what they do. Companies worked for are mentioned on the website. Atmosphere can be fun - on the day of my first interview, someone was leaving and was being serenaded for his last day.
