I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Redscout (New York, NY) in May 2024
Interview
There were several rounds meeting the team, followed by a case study at the last round. I believe this was five rounds in total. In the end, I didn't get the role, I think they paused hiring again and then started looking again several months later. Probably didn't quite know what they were looking for... but that's typical agency interviewing!

Question 1
There was a brand challenge case study at the end! They provided several fictitious brand prompts, and I got to choose one to respond to and build out a presentation / case study, which I then presented to the team.
Met with several members of team, strat director, members of cross-functional teams. Did a case study / project as a final round. Everyone I interviewed with was lovely, but in the end they didn't know what they were looking for and paused the process.

Question 1
Case study: given options of prompts, developed a solution and deck, presented back to team and had a Q&A portion.
Had a first conversation with a Senior Strategist, and later, a round of interviews with a full team. (Strategist, Senior Strategist, Director).
Was then asked to complete, present, and defend an assignment focused on brand positioning and innovation.
