I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Ruder Finn in Apr 2022
Interview
Spoke to five people overall (two interviews were two on one interview) including sending over a writing sample. Pretty easy, general interview questions. Two people seemed really distracted and didn't seem to be paying much attention and two of the interviewers were very nice, responsive and attentive. Interestingly enough the younger people were ruder. Never heard back from them again well into this interview process even though they emailed back twice saying they would provide a response soon.
