The interview process consists of two rounds of HR phone interviews, an aptitude test, and a round of interviews with around 3 members of your team. Mine also consisted of speaking with the managing director.

Applied online in early December for a different position at EAB, then took the personality/skills quiz via email. I spoke to their HR/talent person over the phone the following week, who excitedly told me about the copywriter position, and even asked for salary range and when I could potentially start. I sent her 3-4 samples of my writing. The in-person interview was scheduled almost a month later due to winter holidays and staff going on vacation. My in-person interview consisted of being interviewed by 4 people - two directors, retaking the skills quiz, and the art and web directors. I thought I did pretty well, having been conversational and friendly the whole time, and it seemed like I was a great candidate. However, I didn't get a response on when I'd hear back about the position. I followed up two weeks later with the initial HR person I talked to via email, just asking when I could expect to hear back. Three weeks after my 2nd interview, I received the rejection email that said that there wasn't "mutual alignment" between me and the position. Which was weird, since everyone who interviewed me seemed to like me, and the recruiter had even jumped the gun by asking for start dates, salary, and had even namedropped my former coworker. I might apply to EAB again in the future, but I am very disappointed in the long waiting period and the number of samples I sent, which makes me wonder if they just wanted free samples of work without hiring me - the job position is still open, which reflects more on the company than individual candidates.
