I applied online. I interviewed at Penguin Random House (Buenos Aires) in Jan 2022
Interview
Tuve muchas entrevistas. El proceso duro al rededor de varios meses pero en todas me daban feedback positivo y me preguntaban si seguía interesada en el proceso mientras tanto. Fueron casi tres o cuatro entrevistas y luego psicotécnico y fisico.

The process included multiple rounds of interviews with Vice President and other senior managers, in descending order of company standing. They asked mostly standard questions, and overall created a very conversational and welcoming atmosphere.

What is your biggest weakness? Individual or team-oriented preference? How you solve problems with a direct manager? What do you like to read?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Penguin Random House in Sep 2021
Interview
Pre-recorded online interview for the first stage, felt very impersonal and pointless - very standard questions were asked. They included ‘bloopers’ to show that not even the current company employees were comfortable with the online interview process, but it felt disingenuous and forced. It did not give you any idea about the company culture.
