The hiring process for a Public Relations Intern began with an email application. Within a few days, a hiring manager reached out to schedule a face-to-face interview. The interview was held at the company's office in Centrepoint, Bandar Utama. Due to an unforeseen circumstance, the interview was conducted by a different brand director than the one who initially contacted me. The interview lasted about 40 minutes and focused on my resume and academic projects, with questions designed to assess both soft and hard skills. The interviewer was friendly and detailed the company's culture, dress code, and work environment. They emphasized that much of the learning would be hands-on and on-the-job, which is a key difference from university studies. I was also asked to provide a writing sample, which I submitted later that day. The offer letter was extended the following day, which I accepted by signing and submitting the necessary supporting documents, including my university's industrial placement recommendation letter. The interview experience was ok, as the interviewer was kind and had a nurturing demeanor. However, a key takeaway from the experience is that the on-the-job team dynamics can be different from the impression you get during the interview. The team I ultimately worked with, led by my direct supervisor, had a very distinct different vibe from the interviewer's.
