First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Emma.
Graphic Designer
The interview process was quite drawn out, spanning several weeks with significant delays between assessments and interviews before I'd hear back. I was then invited to a final interview and a creative task, but unfortunately, they couldn't get it scheduled. Ultimately, I was informed the position had been filled over 20 days after they indicated I had successfully passed the previous stage.
- Could you outline a marketing campaign strategy for the company, incorporating the 2024 Paris Olympics?
Senior Software Engineer
I want to preface by saying the people were friendly, but I had to push the process every step of the way. Also, there's a weeklong take home project, but we never spoke about this after I finished it. I put a lot of effort into it, so it was irritating. Setup phone screen on 07/08/21. Spoke with the hiring manager. Did a week long take home project. Panel interview (note: we did not talk about the take home project at all despite my trying to mention it a few times). Rejection email on 08/26/21. Between each step, I would give it about a week, email, and then we'd setup another meeting. Conclusion: The people were great and I felt like we were on the same page. The interview process left a lot to be desired. Ignoring the effort put into the project and the lack of communication were huge red flags.
- Tell me about the weeklong project where you queried a user's Github Gists and displayed the results.
- What do you like about Typescript and why?
- How would you go about introducing Typescript to a team?
Affiliate Account Manager
I had a super long interview call with one of the founders. They hit me with a lot of detailed questions and also asked about strategies I'd use given my understanding of their business, which was a bit unexpected for what seemed like just an initial 'chemistry call'. I shared my ideas and elaborated, and I felt the conversation was going well. Unfortunately, after the call, I didn't hear back from the founder. I noticed on LinkedIn that the job posting had been up for a while and over 100 people had applied, making me wonder if they were just fishing for free strategic advice during the interviews.
- Which affiliate partners would you target for this company, and what challenges should we anticipate?
- What potential obstacles should we consider when identifying and recruiting affiliate partners for this business?
UI Designer
First, I had to choose answers about HTML, CSS, and javascript. Then, there was a face-to-face communication round. After that, I had to write code for things like onclick and fade in fadeout effects on paper, and also a system task. Finally, there was a manager round with some small logical questions. It was pretty much the same process repeated.
- Questions about HTML, CSS, and Javascript
- Did you pass the face-to-face communication round?
- Could you write code for onclick, fade in fadeout effects on paper?
