Colloquio
Talked to HR on the phone and was asked typical questions (why publicity, work history, etc.). Before my interview, I was asked to complete two sample tasks. Then, I went in for an interview, which started with talking to HR. The HR interview was more formal, but pretty typical. Then I met with the hiring managers and a few members of publicity staff. Everyone was really friendly and welcoming. It was more conversational than formal. They wanted to get to know more about me, as a person rather than an employee (although both types of questions were presented).

Colloquio
First, you have a phone call with HR to figure out things like availability, whether or not you can work in the US, what the role consists of, and when you can start working. After that, you have a call with the person who will most likely be your supervisor if you get the job.

HireVue interview process. I was given 3 questions and had to record myself answering them. There was time to prepare for the questions and then you recorded yourself answering. I only have one try at each question.

The process included multiple rounds of interviews with Vice President and other senior managers, in descending order of company standing. They asked mostly standard questions, and overall created a very conversational and welcoming atmosphere.
