First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at CBX.
Design Director
I had 3 interviews, and then they gave me an assignment they said would be paid, but they refused to pay me. They made me work for 4 days for free and then used my work. Be careful!
- Can you elaborate on your design background and past projects?
Business Development
The interview process was bad, too complex, and not well organized. The organizer interviewed me on a Saturday morning and arrived very late. They did not follow up, and I never received any feedback. The interviewer spoke too fast, and the whole process was very weird.
No confirmed questions were included in this interview report.
Strategist
I applied for the Strategist role at CBX and was contacted by the Director of Talent and Growth. We had to reschedule our initial phone interview due to a time zone mix-up, which she apologized for. The phone interview itself went well. Then, I was invited for an in-person interview, which was also rescheduled after they canceled the first attempt. The in-person interview was quite casual, focusing on my background and what I'm looking for. I didn't feel great about my chances based on the interviewer's demeanor. I sent thank-you emails to both interviewers, but unfortunately, I never heard back from either of them, which was really disappointing as I felt they completely ghosted me after I'd already gone in for an in-person interview. It felt disrespectful and showed a lack of courtesy.
- What are your long-term career aspirations?
Designer
The manager was late for the interview. It went well overall, with some friendly small talk. He mentioned he'd already seen my work online and didn't need to see more during the interview, but then told the recruiter I hadn't shown enough work.
- Can you describe the types of design work you performed in your previous role and how it compares to our work here?
