The interview with Sherri Fishman was a negative experience and made me lose interest in the position. It felt like a waste of time as I was rejected during the interview itself. It's confusing to schedule an interview when my resume was already reviewed and my experience was apparently not what they were looking for.

This was a pretty unprofessional interview experience. I had an interview with Fishman a few months back and was a bit on edge during the call due to interview reviews I had read on glass door prior. I had provided multiple resources (resume, CV, personal webpage) to exemplify my experience, yet was rejected mid interview and told that I would not succeed in this role due to lack of experience. As a new grad, that was a degrading experience for a role I was excited and well-prepared to interview for.

The interview process started with a phone interview where I was informed I wasn't qualified. Nevertheless, I was given a 3-hour writing test and then an in-person interview, thinking I might have changed the owner's mind. The in-person interview, scheduled for two hours, finished in just under an hour. Later that same day, I got a response stating I lacked sufficient experience. I really wish they had screened more carefully from the start, as the test and preparing for the in-person interview were a big time waste. My experience level was evident on my resume and should have been apparent during the initial phone screen.

Applied online and went through a phone interview, then a writing test, followed by a Skype interview, and finally an in-person interview. All interactions were with the owner, Sherri Fishman, who was very nice and helpful, and listened to what I wanted and needed.
