I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Meltwater in Mar 2019
Interview
I was extremely uncomfortable during this interview.
The group interview they were obviously looking for the “coolest” people in the room. Hardly any speaking time per person.
Then the individual interview. The hiring manager asked me multiple times if I was “sure” I could go into sales—something I highly doubt he asked the male candidates there. Then he asked me to list the other candidates that I thought were the best and worst by name. It was extremely unprofessional. I was uncomfortable the whole interview and was ultimately relieved that I didn’t get the job.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Meltwater
Interview
Group interview, very welcoming and easy to go through the steps. They start by telling you about the company and what they are looking for in an applicant and then you get the chance to tell them about yourself
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Introduce yourself and talk about and event or achievement you have accomplished in your life.
I applied online. I interviewed at Meltwater (Atlanta, GA)
Interview
The first round interview was a group interview, which are normally terrible; however, Meltwater structured their's in a very appropriate way. Each candidate (about 10 in my interview) was given equal time to speak when asked a question, and they did not ask questions that would pit candidates against each other. Instead, they even had us do a collaborative presentation in small groups with the other applicants. I did not make it to the second round individual interview though, so do not know what that process was like.
