I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Edelman (Singapore)
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn for a job opportunity with Edelman. Went through multiple stages – a screening interview, an interview with the managers, a writing test and at the final stage, prepared a case presentation which I presented to the team. After all of that, the recruiter did not get back to me on the outcome of the interview process despite multiple follow-ups over a few months. Team members were extremely nice but a very disappointing recruitment process.

Question 1
They asked me to developed a PR plan and presented it in front of the users.
Why do you thing your case study is good/bad and why?
It might be an intense process but the interview process itself is excellent in preparing a fresh grad for the world of PR. The case studies presented are well-thought-out and gives a candidate a very good opportunity to share their knowledge with a real-life context.
