It was quite a drawn out and disconnected process due to lack of cohesion between brand and HR but overall a decent experience with hiring managers at both stages of interview.
Hearst is a wonderful company. I loved the interview process and live working there. The team and energy is great. The brands are awesome too. The NY offices are a highlight.
I applied online. I interviewed at HEARST (New York, NY) in Mar 2020
Interview
Quick. Had me do a sample project. Wouldn't negotiate on salary but combined several roles into one job. Not enough pay to level workload it seemed. Recruiter was pleasant. Interviewers were straightforward and honest about responsibilities.
