I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Merkle (Edinburgh, Scotland) in Aug 2020
Interview
Had initial interview, went through to the second interview, was given a task that I created a presentation for and presented in a final interview before I was offered the job. Base knowledge is good to have as they ask questions dealing with the basics of paid search to test understanding.

I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Merkle (London, England)
Interview
Professional, friendly interviewers throughout. First round a phone call just, mostly questions about the company and culture fit. Final round had to do a case study for a pretend client and present paid search structure and strategy that I would use, followed by lots of questions about this.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Merkle (London, England)
Interview
Various levels of interviewing. Call stage, a group interview and then a 1-1 interview to present back a task that was provided a week prior. Challenging, but interesting to get stuck in. They don't expect you to be an expert but do want to see passion and interest.
