I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meltwater (London, England) in Feb 2019
Interview
Long, tiring, Intimidating , unnecessary ; they made us feel like we were in the apprentice as people got elimater after work each round and had to wait in a coffee shop to get a call back for the next round

Question 1
“Role play on how to speak to a client” all interviewers were standing around a table whilst you had to act out the answer and preferred answer. Was incredibly unnecessary

Interview
They completely wasted my time. Led me on for a month, acted as if they were urgently hiring and excited to bring someone on. After the final round interview I had to follow up with them 3 different times before the recruiter finally sent me a generic rejection email that they went with an internal hire. The team lacks diversity and I'm not surprised I was rejected honestly. The base pay they were offering was also comically low....it was worse than my first job as a new CSM with no experience.
4 Rounds
- Recruiter (Introductory)
- Managing Director of the Team - Discuss experience in a bit more detail and some repeated questions from the first
- Case Study with Managing Director and 1 other person - going over how you would continue the onboarding of an unhappy client
- Final Round with Area Director - behavioural and situational questions
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meltwater in Mar 2025
Interview
One screening call, went alright, rather basic questions.
The second call was pretty informative and engaging. Thought it went really well and did not receive any negative or disapproving immediate feedback. Next day - an automatic reply saying 'no thanks' - not a single reason why... Asked for more feedback as to what made them take this decision (my experience checked every single box on the offer) - ghosted...
