Got into my second round of interviews at FCB. My first one was w folks in my dept (account). My next round is with an integrated producer and director of copy. What should I expect or do to prep?

When I interview someone outside my dept, I always appreciate when the interviewee says something along the lines of, “Tell me about what you expect from me / my department in terms of how best we can partner.” It shows that you respect other disciplines and what they offer.

Adding to what Huge said, I find it good to listen more than talk in those interviews. Simple stuff like asking what are their frustrations with agency and client. Then I talk about how my approach mitigates that.

Should I complain to a firm's HR if the interviewers laughed at my answer during an interview?

I said it soo many times during OCI's that maybe it eventually sounded robotic, but for the interviewers to laugh and one to say sarcastically "nice elevator pitch", I thought was rude. Thoughts?

I recently interviewed for a small strat consulting company (energy industry). I have 3 YoE and would be moving from engineering. the HR person asked me what my salary expectations were I was caught offguard and said I would expect it to be at least what I make now (around 100k). Im now worried theyll lowball me because I really shouldve asked for 120+bonus (I think this is market rate?) But they have salary bands they follow right?So if they pay consultants 140 usually would they offer me 100k?

This is second time I got offer from CGI but now I have again a better opportunity. So if this time I reject will there be any problem for me in future?
