I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Top3 Media (Singapore) in Jul 2015
Interview
A week after I applied online, I received an email invitation for a face-to-face interview. I had to arrange a suitable date and time with one of the firm's owners, as well as, my flight ticket and stay over in Singapore. Upon the day of the interview, I was met up with him, and much later on together with the firm's GM. The entire interview was rather casual and relaxed, and the owner even shared with me openly some of the firm's current challenges. He felt that I could be part of his firm as someone who could greatly turn the company around. Eventually, he asked me to provide him a proposal and position title that weren't related to the applied position above. The GM didn't ask much relating to the opportunity.
After the interview, the owner went off for his marriage honeymoon. We kept in touch for a while until the exchange of messages went completely silent. I followed up after 3 weeks later, but it was in vain. Not a single response, just plain silence, and eventually severing all future connections. What bad business etiquette!

Interview
Being full time employed, I was seeking for a change in environment and sent out my resume to a few PR companies, Top3 was one of those. My interviewer came in greeting with a really low cut dress and did not introduce about herself, the organization or provide me with any job description. As there was no job description, I could not find a direction to adhere to during the interview process, rather, I chose the approach to answer her honestly. She could have handled it better, but I would humbly deduce that she is not experienced nor qualify to interview any potential employees, due to the lack of direction and her speech incohesion, she also did not prepare very well either and had no idea how potential employees could add value to the organization. The questions were not experience or technical skills oriented, all I knew was that they were looking for someone awesome. I can safely conclude that I have not been shortlisted since the interviewer chose to not communicate afterwards but the fact that I took half a day off being a full time working professional was met with the lack of communication is unappreciated and in my humble opinion, it is very unprofessional. Being a PR professional, the interviewer should have known better to equip herself with the skills and knowledge needed to handle other working professionals.
