Behavioral Technical Presentation
This interview process felt like a complete waste of time given the extremely low salary offered. The skills test was unreasonably difficult and seemed designed for failure. The entire process dragged on for 4 months, involving 5 separate meetings with different teams. It also included a 2-hour skills test. I spent over 15 hours, both at their offices and in my life, only to be informed the role was under review and ultimately, no one was hired.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview process was pretty thorough, with two video call interviews. The first one was mainly about my portfolio and previous work. The second one was more about me and my current design role at my firm, with a bunch of questions and conversation.

The interview process was pretty straightforward, though I wish there had been more enthusiasm. I interviewed with the head of Asia and another principal. The interview itself lasted about 30 to 45 minutes.
