I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Digitas (New York, NY) in Apr 2014
Interview
I Went to a super-day in the office for seniors. It was set-up speed dating style with 3 rounds of interviews. However, the lounge area was so small, I was literally shouting to my interviewer for her to hear me. Moreover, all the interviewers asked me simple and meaningless questions. Nothing constructive or questions that allowed me to explain my extensive experience in this position. I do not understand how they evaluated which candidates they wanted to select. Maybe favorites or friends to employees?...
All in all, one of the worst interview experiences i ever had. I dont think this process was thought all the way through.

Interview
Went through 3 rounds of interviews for a position as an associate media planner in the Digitas media training program. Very casual interview and the supervisors were very easy to talk to.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Digitas in Nov 2021
Interview
Three rounds of interviews. Very informative and comfortable environment. Was much more conversational and actually the best interview process I've ever gone through! I really enjoyed my conversations and everyone I met seemed sincere and excitable. They seem to care more about who you are as a person, to show you WANT to join and continue to learn. The process was straightforward and I heard back pretty quickly after each round of interviews. I believe the whole process was about 1-week.

Interview
There is a first round phone interview with a recruiter to see if you are a general fit. Then there was a second round interview with four separate team members lasting 30 minutes with each person (2hrs in total). Finally you will have a final call with the recruiter to confirm your interest in the role.
