The interview process was good! I spoke with the senior designer and with Lisa Nickerson, the founder. The process can sometimes take a while, depending on the time of year and how busy the company is.

The interview process with Nickerson was really smooth and impressive. Lisa Nickerson and my potential supervisor kept in touch really well, were open about everything, and acted professionally. They'd update me on the interview status, and I also followed up. It was seriously the best hiring process I've been through. I respect how Nickerson treats candidates.

I applied for a social media associate role in November via LinkedIn. Initially, there was no response since the hiring manager was no longer with the company. I followed up in January and the CEO personally replied, expressing interest and scheduling an in-person interview. Although later hires were interviewed via Skype, this interview was mandatory in person. Despite a good interview, the hiring process was extremely drawn out, taking until late May. I followed up numerous times, receiving consistent responses about needing two weeks to decide on a different opportunity, which then extended into months. I accepted the job due to financial reasons, but the workload ultimately did not justify the compensation.

I had a phone interview with HR and the director, and they seemed happy with my answers. I was then given an interview the next day. The founder of the company also left me a message on LinkedIn, followed by a one-on-one interview with the PR director.
