      Director Interview

      Feb 8, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Toronto, ON
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Edelman (Toronto, ON) in Nov 2020

      Interview

      I applied online and received an interview within a week. I first interviewed over Teams with someone from HR, then with an SVP. They then asked me to complete a personality profile. After that I was asked to complete an assignment that took 3 days to complete. They asked me to hurry through it and submit it by a certain date. Right after they received it, I was told that I had to present my overall report to the SVP within 2 days. On the day that I was scheduled to present, I found out that I also had 2 more interviews scheduled with senior leaders, however the HR rep forgot to invite ME to the interviews. So she added the extra people onto my presentation, and they were given the opportunity to interview me during my presentation in front of the audience. This would not have been so terrible, but I did not have a chance to prepare for this, and to top it off, the HR rep did not take ownership of her mistake. The entire process was less than 2 weeks as they were hurrying through it. They also changed the position from what I was applying for and the salary for this position is about 25% below industry standard.

      Director Interview

      Nov 18, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Edelman in Feb 2022

      Interview

      This was for a job within a project/small company that Edelman houses. An HR person contacted me right after I applied and set up a mtg with the CEO of this group. She told me that the guy was kind of eccentric. During our meeting he shared a variety of political views with me which had nothing to do with the job. I just nodded and smiled. At one point he asked me if I understood cloud computing, because he may have a business opportunity in the field. As far as I knew, this company had literally nothing to do with cloud computing. I explained as much as I could to him and he seemed impressed. Suddenly, without warning, he got up and walked me to the elevator. Pretty much in the middle of a sentence. I have no idea why. I called the HR lady later and she didn't seem surprised.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Edelman (Toronto, ON)

      Interview

      Multiple virtual interviews, with HR, then my line manager, then a group of VPs, as well as a psychometric evaluation and interview task. Very comprehensive overall, but the evaluation was stressful and no results were shared (other than that I was hired, so I obviously passed).

      Overall it was a good learning opportunity and discussion as a way forward. From the beginning to the final stage it was smooth and formal. It largely covered Market understanding, trends and outlook
