I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at OMD (Sydney) in Mar 2025
Interview
It was a very efficient and straightforward process- I saw the job posted on Seek then applied via their website. Within a few days I was contacted by the hiring manager to set up an initial phone screening interview. She asked what I was looking for and described a bit more about the role. I then was scheduled in for an online interview the following week with two Account Managers. The interviewers were friendly, explained to me more about the role and the team I'd be working with, and ask me questions related to my experience. I was then offered the role over the phone the next day by the hiring manager. Overall, a very transparent, easy, and positive experience!
