Interviewed Apr 2009 in New York, NY (took a day)
I interviewed for and Account Coordinator position. I interviewed with a hiring manager and it seemed as though they had already filled the position when they were talking to me. I flew in for the interview and after no one followed up with me after I followed up with them. The interview was only about a half an hour long.

Interviewed May 2011 in San Francisco, CA (took 2 weeks)
Interviewed for an internship position at Weber Shandwick. Had a phone interview which went all right. Was called in for an in-person interview about a week later. The in-person interview consisted of three rounds, each with a few different people. Thought it went well enough, however, did not receive any communications afterward.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Birmingham, MI (took 3 weeks)
I was asked to come in for an "informational interview." I met with approximately 5 different Weber employees. Each person discussed their role within the company. At the end of each meeting, I was given time to ask questions. I felt as though I was a burden to some, but overall I had a positive experience.

Interviewed Nov 2010 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
HR set up several 1:1 interviews with people who led the accounts that the position would be supporting. The questions were pretty standard - tell me about yourself, what kind of work do you like, what is your ideal work environment - but I got the impression pretty quickly that my experience wasn't a great fit for this opening, and so did the woman I was speaking with.
What was irritating about this process was that despite emailing the HR person a few days later to check on the status of my application and the opening, she never responded. Not even a "Thanks, but no thanks." She actually called me a few months later to discuss another opening, and didn't even mention the prior interview.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Shanghai (China) (took 4 days)
I applied online and received an email from HR manager few weeks later, arranging time for an interview. The first interview was a phone interview with HR manager, didnt really ask anything job related, but really some availability and schedules. I went in to the office for a group interview couple days later, with 3 other candidates and 2 executives from the specific team we were interviewing with. Interview consists oral and written tests.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Washington, DC (took 5 weeks)
It was really laid back, the internship coordinators are very personable and make the interview pleasant. There were 2 rounds of interviews on the phone. They asked basic questions like how I would apply my experience to the internship. I would recommend researching Weber Shandwick before hand because that really impressed them.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in New York, NY (took 6+ months)
Several conversations with SVP of HR. 1 meeting with two people on the team. Meeting was informal. Follow-up was non-existent. Position was never filled. They cannot make hires because they take forever to book meetings and get everything lined up.

Interviewed Dec 2009 (took 2 days)
The HR recruiter was snarky and somewhat condescending. Those I spoke with seemed incapable of understanding/comprehending my experience as both a business professional and communcations professional. The people doing the hiring at agencies are either too young of have no experience in the field. I had the best interview with the New York office--but the recruiter had a Ph.D in organizational psych and totally saw my value as a strategic hire. I'm convinced that most agencies are full of hacks.
