They do count as final stage Pokémon, but when interacting with other Pokémon, there is only a rapport bonus if they meet with another final stage Pokémon, such as if an Emolga and a Mimikyu were to have an interview. ;3

Otherwise, they don't get any bonuses or deductions when speaking to Pokémon that belongs to a three-stage or two-stage evolution line. And Mega Evolutions still have the same interview rapport situation as their previous form did. So in Ciel's case, she'd still be considered Altaria for this.
