They did a good job of asking straightforward questions and gave a good overall description of what the company culture was like. Would recommend working there for anyone interested in growing their public relations skills.

Interview
Great! No problems, fairly typical interview that I would say is standard of other public relations firms. Would recommend this company to anyone looking for boutique PR firm experience in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at KITE HILL Public Relations (New York, NY) in Jul 2017
Interview
I was contacted nearly three months after I applied. First I had a phone interview with the founder which went well, then I went onsite and met with two others. After speaking about my experience, one of the interviewers asked me why I was interested in this position since my background is in PR. I reiterated the position I was interviewing for was the PR Associate role. She did not look pleased. I sent follow-up thank yous and heard nothing. Someone at the office replied to the initial scheduling email thread to tell me they moved forward with another candidate. A one sentence email with no salutation. Overall this company does not handle updating and releasing candidates well, so do not expect a response if you do not receive a reply after a few days.
