Droese Public Relations interview questions

The whole process took a span of a few weeks. I corresponded with two of these so-called mavens. My primary qualm is that you can tell they are monolithic work environment. You’re expected to be from a specific financial background and perhaps have attended a private university. To be specific, SMU in Dallas. Anyone that diverts from that is immediately unwelcome. I found the owner to be quite a nice person, but her staff are aloof, rude and just downright unprofessional. Some of the statements made throughout the interview highlighted the cliquey nature of the agency. I’d hate to discourage anyone from a particular environment, but as others have shared, they will not follow up with you. They’re truly just seeking to have a homogenized work environment. I’d be skeptical of the favorable reviews recently posted on the main page.

The interview itself was nice. I had a good conversation with several team members, including the owner, and we reviewed my portfolio together. Overall, I think I was overqualified for the position. My main issue, however, was with the post-interview follow through: AKA there was none. At the end of our conversation, the main recruiter I spoke with asked me to email her with my salary requirements. I opted to give a higher range to account for the fact that no health benefits were offered, but it was still well within industry standards. After that... crickets. All in all, I don't think it was a good fit for either of us, but at least close the loop with your candidates! It's just common courtesy (as is offering health insurance...)
