I've heard they ask questions to really see how you think. Like "how many ATMs are there in the United States." They'll want to hear your thought process out loud. It's less about being right and more about how you'd tackle the problem.

They make you sign an NDA once you get to the in person round so unfortunately you won't learn many specifics- but from experience I can say the questions weren't as crazy as people lead you to expect. Just know the ad products and be familiar with typical scenarios that happen (budget cuts, upselling, taking budgets from traditional methods, etc ) and how you'd handle them. Good luck!
