I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cision (Beltsville, MD) in Mar 2018
Interview
Very quick and streamlined process. Basic phone interview, followed by a in-person interview with 2 lower level managers.
They asked fairly tough questions regarding instances I've gone through in my past. They focused a lot on the details on my resume and questioned how I got to where I was, etc.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cision (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2018
Interview
Applied online, heard back in about a week and set up a phone screen. Very casual feel, and lasted about 30 minutes. Really just to review my resume, not too many behavioral/situational questions. Next day I received an email letting me know they wanted to set me up with a second phone interview with the hiring manager. This was a more intense phone call with more directed questions about my sales process, cadence and strategic thinking. I felt it went fairly well, but a week later they sent me an email letting me know they wouldn't be continuing with my application.
Overall, solid communication from the recruiter and everyone was extremely friendly and pleasant. Interviewing is a tough process, so it's nice when a company handles it so professionally.
