The phone screen call went very smoothly. The recruiter simply asked me to explain my experience/confirm my resume. I came into the office for an in-person interview the same week as the phone screen. With the in-person interview, I was interviewed by 2 people that I would potentially work with. Both interviews were very conversational style, which made me feel comfortable. The interview was focused on my experience relevant to the position I was interviewing for. I did not receive any questions meant to trick me, and this section of the interview process also went by smoothly. The next day I got a call from the initiation recruiter with a job offer.

I applied online, application was received 2 weeks later. Human Resources representative sent email to schedule phone interview. HR personnel was in New York. ID Media rep asked basic interview questions regarding the advertising industry, specifically related to ID Media and the Assistant Media Strategist, entry-level position. Interview lasted 10 minutes. Questions were straightforward, but interviewer did not ask me if I had questions. Again, phone interview only lasted 10 minutes. I am a people person, but the ID Media rep did not sound people-oriented. Based on my experiences with phone interviews this was the worst phone interview I have ever encountered and I'll just say that before I become an agency critic for a living.
