The process began with a very short & pleasant conversation with a recruiter who seemed genuinely confident that I could be successful at Merkle. I initially applied for 2 different positions and I was notified within a day that I'd be moving forward with the SEO position and was invited to come on-site for an interview. I was asked to complete a short assessment activity that involved developing a simple, high-level SEO strategy. The onsite interview was very relaxed. It lasted about 2 hours - first was with 3 senior managers and the second was with the director and another senior manager. The tone was very conversational, and I left feeling very good about my experience. Everyone from the recruiter to the director was incredibly friendly and supportive. I received a verbal offer the following day! Definitely the best interview experience I've had yet!
