The vibe was great. They wanted to get to know the team and see how I'd fit in. They care about culture just as much as talent! We talked about my experience and my hobbies too. They're looking for designers who are talented and have interests outside of architecture.

So I applied online and then heard back maybe 2 to 3 months later. The first interview was with a Senior Architect/Studio Director. After that, there was a second interview with the team, and then the Studio Director and a Principal talked to me about the offer and salary. I didn't take the job because the offer wasn't what I wanted.
