Curious if anyone who works at Digitas Chicago knows if you’re going back to the office soon? I have an interview coming up but I’m currently based out of state. Is it looking like remote work is a possibility or would I be expected to relocate soon? I’m open to it, but not sure if I would be able to for a few months... but I also wouldn’t mind being permanently remote.

 There has been no official date announced yet regarding our return to office, but they are hopeful that it might be in the fall. I feel like everyone is aiming for Google’s calendar, which would put us at September. The agency has made it clear that they do not feel we are an online company, and that they want us to come back in person. However, they have also recognized that not everybody will want to come back for five days a week, so there will be more flexibility. Regarding working 100% remote permanently, If you want to have a chance to do that I would make sure you negotiate that right up front, and that you understand whether the account you are interviewing for will be OK with that. Otherwise, I don’t think it will happen.

Thanks for the response! That’s exactly the info I was looking for. I do think I’ll see what the expectations are during the interview/s, but even if they are okay with me working remotely at least until the fall, that would give me time to tie everything up here and find a place to live in/near Chicago.

There is a ethical issue with the Nagarro interview process. Why don't Nagarro make the job interviews aligned to the same level of client interviews. Client interviews in Nagarro is tougher than job interviews. This way Nagarro is increasing the bench strength but then putting extra pressure on the candidates in to find a project. Keep the same standard of the interview for both job and client. This way both will be in a good state of mind.
