I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Publicis Groupe in Jul 2012
Interview
I applied online to a job posting and got an immediate response. I had an interview with the account lead and also got to talk to the AE on the account. When I asked next steps they said they had a few more people to interview and then they would make selections for interviews with the rest of the team. I was told I would hear from them within the next week. I thought the interview went well, but I never heard back. Even after trying to make contact via email and phone. No response. I soon saw that the job was re-posted.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Publicis Groupe (Dubai)
Interview
The process had a task with the senior manager and Director of giving a presentation for the brand and then had a Q&A round. Post that HR called and hired me.
