Jones Knowles Ritchie Interview Questions

There was a two stage interview process, both were in person at the office. In both interviews, the interviewers were welcoming and created a relaxed environment. I got a good sense of the agency personality.

Fast-paced, very nice and smooth process, we had 3 rounds of interviews though to figure out that there is a disagreement within the management about the type/caliber of the person they want to hire.

Very relaxed. They made me feel extremely calm despite being nervous beforehand. They made sure to listen to everything I had to say and always spoke in a positive way.

Introductions from JKR and the IT manager along with someone who had previously done the role I applied for Introductions from Candidates Questions and Answering session Group Exercise Technical questions One on One interview

The interviewers were really friendly. They made the effort to make you feel comfortable. It was really a good company. They didnt try to put me in a spot.

Applied online (via LinkedIn). Part of the application was submitting a video describing a brand that I found charismatic, along with a cover letter and resume. I didn't hear back for a few weeks, but eventually was contacted for a phone interview, which was mostly behavioral/fit – pretty standard questions. A few days after that, I received the official offer.

Three stages: 1. Submit a video on a brand you admire. 2. One to one interview with recruitment manager 3. Assessment day with 13 or so other candidates. Approx 7 hours of assessment. At the end of the interview they sat us round a table and told us who got the job and who did not.

One on one interview with Strategy Director. Informal, friendly and he showed a real interest in my experience and skills. I ran him through a quick presentation of my strategic philosophy and past projects I've worked on which he really liked. The interview was a two-way process; he was keen to explain what JKR are about and how they are seen in the industry. Ultimately they were looking for someone with different kind of experience to mine, so I didn't progress to the next stage which would have been preparing a presentation to a couple more senior members of the team.
