      Advertising Consultant Interview

      May 29, 2014
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Autotrader (New York, NY) in May 2014

      Interview

      The process consisted of 3 phone interviews, and 2 face to face interviews. The first phone interview was to see if they wanted to move me on in the process. The next 2 were with various managers and were to see if I had the experience they were looking for. The 2 face to face were normal, definitely not stressful compared to some others I have been on. I made it to the final 3 candidates , but was not offered the position.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Normal questions, nothing unexpected or tricky. The interviews were very straightforward.
