The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Interbrand
Interview
Their recruitment process and the way they treat potential employees is unfortunate, really. I had heard this from a couple colleagues of mine but was still optimistic that their experiences were isolated. Not so. I was contacted 4 weeks ago by a Talent Acquisition Partner with whom I scheduled an over-the-phone interview. Being currently employed (yet desperately seeking employment elsewhere), I was happy to re-arrange my schedule on the day of the interview in order to get out of the office for an hour to take the call. Long story short, she just never called. I sent an email 10 minutes after the call was scheduled to begin and she wrote back immediately that she was stuck in a meeting and asked if I would like to re-schedule for a week and a half later- which I reluctantly agreed to after requesting that we instead have the call sooner than this date. I received an email 30 minutes before this call was supposed to happen stating that the position had been filled (of course it had been by then!). It's unfortunate that the reputation of such a great agency is being tarnished by it's recruiting department and processes.

Other Associate Consultant Interview Reviews for Interbrand
Six rounds over three months with HR (phone screen), several strategy and analytics directors and portfolio managing director (mix of teleconference, in-person and Skype).
Would say for an entry-level position the vetting process was very high/involved — would recommend not recycling interviewers as most content has already been covered in the first conversation
I applied online. I interviewed at Interbrand in Nov 2018
Interview
Very smooth. Expect a case study to complete, followed by a presentation and Q&A surrounding the case. The questions they ask are not "gotcha" questions, but more thought provoking. As long as you defend your thinking, it will reflect well.
