It was a super relaxed interview. The hiring manager didn’t really grill me with questions. Actually, they wanted me to do most of the asking. Make sure you come prepared with at least 4–5 good questions, especially about company culture and how the team works together.

The recruiter was good, but the whole process took way too long. They seem to have a problem with consensus paralysis, which I see as a major red flag. When too many people have to make a decision, it feels like nothing gets done. I get the impression that's how they operate.

The interview process went well. I had three interview rounds: first a phone screener, then a second interview with the hiring manager, and finally a third interview with the rest of the team at FUGA. Everyone I met was really nice and genuinely interested in my responses. Unfortunately, due to the acquisition of Downtown by Universal Music Group, all open positions were removed from the company's job portal and other job sites. I'm guessing this is because of a new hiring freeze, and the role I was interviewing for seems to have been affected. This is just my guess based on what's public. It would have been great to work with Downtown; they seemed like a great team.

I had a phone interview where the interviewer seemed distracted and not very engaged during our conversation. It was a bit unusual, so I'm not sure if that's typical. The questions were mainly about my resume, so it's a good idea to prepare by reviewing it. They also asked some questions about the job itself, so make sure to go over the job description.
