I applied online and had a phone interview with someone from an office in another state, even though I applied for a position in my area. Phone interview went great, so an in-person interview was set up with someone from my area. The interview was standard, but I felt like the interviewers wanted to be anywhere but there. I hardly had a chance to thank them for their time before they were shaking my hand and walking back to their offices. It felt like they were already giving me the cold shoulder. I interviewed with two people. I answered questions, asked them in return, spoke about the position. Very typical, but I think one of the biggest differences with talking to this agency in comparison to others was the fact that they continuously brought up how wonderful the agency was, ad nauseam. It didn't really come across as humble as I assume was their intention, but to me, rather superior and a bit off-putting. At the end of the interview, I was given a writing test to be completed within two days. I followed up with post-interview emails after the meeting, and I submitted my test, did followups on status a few days later, and waited a week or two to hear back. Nothing. So when I emailed the local office, I got no reply and instead was sent an email from the person in another state letting me know they were moving forward with someone else. On the one hand, I'm glad I heard back rather than receiving no reply whatsoever. However, I do find it unprofessional that no one contacted me or that when they finally got back to me, someone from an entirely different office let me know. You'd think for a PR firm, they'd be much more responsible with how they handle communications instead of brushing off potential candidates like I felt they'd done with me.
