The interview process started with an Excel test, which focused on functions like vlookup and pivot tables, and general Excel proficiency. This was followed by an online interview conducted via Microsoft Teams. I spoke with two managers from different departments.

I was introduced by a recruiter and then met them in person at their office. The managers seemed open-minded and were receptive to my questions. They were professional and clearly explained what the role entailed.

Behavioral

I went through a phone interview and then an in-person interview. The questions were pretty standard. Unfortunately, the recruiter never got back to me after that, even though I was really interested and they mentioned bringing me in for another interview. I tried following up multiple times with no response. The job was posted again about four months later, which seemed strange because I know a lot of people applied the first time around.

First, there was a 15-minute phone call with the recruiter. Then, a 1-hour Zoom meeting for a portfolio review with the director of design. The next step was an onsite interview in Irvine with the design leadership, although they mentioned it could also be virtual. The hiring manager said I'd hear back in about 1 to 2 weeks, but it took 3.5 weeks to get a rejection email from both him and the recruiter.
