seeing how marketing is being viewed by the community here (i will not comment about my own views of it - let it remain ambiguous), but i am in the midst of recruiting with P&G and would like to know if anybody has gone through this and could help me with some pointers. obviously, it's for a marketing position. hopefully consulting-oriented folks might know a thing or two...
thanks, d

lol Marketing at P&G sounds a lot more fun and interesting than corporate finance. I would imagine it is all fit questions. I would poke around their website and know about any current campaigns they have. Might want to brush up on their products, how they sell them, why P&G. Know major competitors, stuff like that.
Which product? My mother does baby-care at P&G maybe I could toss you a few pointers.
No need for shame
Interesting thread. Is comp similar? Hours? Lifestyle?
Is this position out of NYC or OH or elsewhere?
Check out some of the articles in WSJ around their recent product rolls outs, pretty neat stuff actually. Mostly in Marketplace.
I have an ex that works for J&J. You get discounts on all of the products.
P&G is one of the most respected companies in the world. I am assuming that if you fresh out of school that it is a CMK position.
I know that their first round interviews are all about the "tell me about a time when you did X" . The typical stuff, worked in a team where you didn't get along, found a solution that others didn't, etc etc.
And as far as these positions go, I know several of people that worked at P&G and most of them are retired by 50-55 and have a GREAT lifestyle (both while they worked and now when they retired).
