I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Four Agency (London, England) in Jul 2023
Interview
Applied online for the role, got a mail confirming the invitation to interview 3 weeks later. An hour before the interview was scheduled, I received a mail stating that the interviewer had some urgent commitment. I kindly agreed to reschedule the interview and asked the coordinator to send me new date. No response. I followed up twice in the subsequent weeks. Still no response.
Apparently, they had hired someone else for the role. What appalled me about this was that they didn't even care to inform me, or even reply to my emails. Let alone, been given a fair chance to interview and then reject/accept me after the process.

I applied in-person. I interviewed at Four Agency in Sept 2025
Interview
I was personally invited by the Managing Director for an interview at Four. The interview was rescheduled several times, and despite requesting an online option, I was still asked to attend the office for both interview rounds. The second round written task was also rescheduled at the last minute.
After completing the task in person, I followed up multiple times but received no acknowledgement or update. Later, I discovered on the company’s website that the role had been cancelled in this country and re-advertised in another location, without any communication to me.
Regardless of the outcome, candidates deserve clear and timely updates. The repeated rescheduling, lack of communication, and eventual silence reflect poorly on the company’s professionalism. As an agency, one would expect a higher standard of organisation and respect towards candidates.
It was a full day that required us to complete a number of tasks allocated to show our tenacity as PR professionals. Asking news-related questions, drafting press releases, excel spreadsheets and interviews to test our ability.
