I applied online. I interviewed at Weber Shandwick (New York, NY) in Jul 2018
Interview
It was for their Crisis communications team. The whole process seemed very rushed, like they already had another candidate in mind but invited me in as part of procedure. They were on their phones for most of my interview.

Question 1
During the interviews, they inquired about my background, previous work experiences, and internships.
Very basic & easy questions about previous work experience, education and your interest. They'll probably ask you why you're interested in the field of PR at all, what motivates you kind of thing. Basically, they want to know if you'll stick around for long.
