Had an initial interview but then didn't hear back. The recruiting manager was really nice though and asked basic marketing questions. It felt pretty laid back and they seemed genuinely interested, which was nice.

The interview process involved a case study presentation that was quite involved. The interviews and proof of concept stages were pleasant and the questions were moderately difficult. I made it to the final round, but they ultimately selected someone with more experience. Overall, I'd still suggest applying.

It started off pretty standard - a phone interview with HR, then they bring you in for an on site interview, followed by an assignment. Everyone was super friendly and enthusiastic. The only big negative is that if you're not selected or the job is put on hold, they won't let you know. I'm not sure if this is company policy, but it seems that way.
