I completed the first-round video interview, which involved responding to a set of pre-recorded questions about my background and marketing experience. I was then invited to the second round, which includes a one-hour session made up of two back-to-back 30-minute live interviews with potential hiring managers. These interviews will focus more deeply on my strategic thinking, channel expertise, and fit with the team and company culture.

I had four individual interviews total, in two rounds. The first round occurred on campus with two members of the marketing team who were around the manager level. The second round was held at the London HQ and was conducted by two heads of different marketing departments - product and general marketing. I really enjoyed my experience with all four interviewers and only declined the offer because I received an offer in big tech, an area I was more interested in that financial services. The decision was made even harder because friends who had worked at AmEx all said it was a great work environment.
