Behavioral Technical
It was pretty tough. There were two interviewers. They came across as a bit condescending. They didn't seem to care much about my portfolio or previous work, and more about whether I could give answers they liked. It wasn't a great experience and felt rushed, like they just wanted to get it over with. I would have preferred to discuss the actual work I've done!

First, you'll have a test to complete that includes a live presentation. You need to read an article and make notes on what you'd put in a 'live' segment. You should also talk about any images or graphics you'd use. This part takes 30 minutes. The interview questions are more idea-focused, so be ready with plenty of story ideas!
