I met with two different people from the membership department and spent about 10 minutes speaking with each of them in their offices. I arrived five minutes early and the interview began ten minutes later. They were friendly and questions were straight-forward, i.e. no trick questions. I was told that they anticipated selection in the next four days. When I never heard back, I emailed asking for an update and was told that they had selected another candidate. I thought that the interview went very well, as I had done a lot of preparation and answered all of the questions as fully as I could. I left thinking that I would get an offer and was disappointed when I did not.

I applied online and two weeks later, the hiring manager for the role contacted me. We had about a 30-minute phone chat that was more in-depth than a standard screening. They asked about my interest in LACMA and how I'd handle specific situations. The interviewer seemed positive and said I'd hear back, but I had to follow up two weeks later via email with no response. I called them for an update because I had other job offers. They mentioned putting the hiring on hold because the department was too busy. My interview was in March, and they suggested they'd restart the process in May. I think it's disorganized because candidates might accept other jobs in that two-month waiting period.

I applied online and the whole process took about a week. It started with a phone interview where they gave me an overview of the company, explained what the internship would involve, and asked about my previous marketing skills and experience. After that, I had an in-person interview with two people, one from the Marketing department and another from the Membership department.

Applied online and after a week, I got a phone call for an interview. Then I had two in-person interviews and some more questions were asked over the phone. After that, there was complete silence for over two months. It would have been nice to get an email or a call saying I didn't get the job, especially after two pretty good interviews.
