I applied online. I interviewed at Criteo (Barcelona) in Jun 2017
Interview
The interview process consisted of an initial call to discuss the position, a follow up meeting with the manager and a role-playing session with multiple managers from Criteo. During the Initial call a recruiter from Criteo explained the process, the function and asked some basic questions. After this, a second round of interviews were planned with the prospective manager. These questions were more in-depth and were quite challenging. The final round consisted of a role-playing exercise where the interviewee had to present a case to the prospective manager and 2 other managers.

Question 1
Why would I be a good fit for the Account Strategist function
Todo se desarrollo normal hasta la entrevista final con un business case study. Me quedé sin noticia y sin feedback despues... Los recursos humanos tienen que tener respeto por el tiempo y trabajo que un candidato dedica para un proceso.
Started with HR and the moves to Managers. Both teams were very competent and the process was smooth. It lasted around 3 weeks the questions were relevant and the timing was correct. Enough time to prepare and good feedbacks received after each interview round. I eventually accepted the offer.

Question 1
Started with HR and finished with the case study presentation
It was a 4 round process; screen call, 1st interview with the hiring manager, panel interview with their team, and lastly a mock presentation in front of the hiring manager and 2 other managers. Wasted a month of time going all the way through for a rejection. Quickly came to see after that many people in this position do not look like me; they are mainly white and even more so, white women. Think its pretty obvious why I didn't get the role. Unless you're applying to this company for anything outside client facing stuff, you probably won't be hired if you are a POC.
