Presentation Behavioral
I applied for a Sr. Designer role and the interview process was pretty standard. It started with a panel interview with three members of the design team who wanted to go over my portfolio and past work. Then, I had a follow-up with a recruiter, which felt a bit out of order compared to other companies. After that, I was told I was the top candidate and then had to wait around for three weeks while they figured things out internally. Ultimately, I didn't get an offer because they decided to stop hiring remote positions and thought I was overqualified.

The process was super quick. My first interview was with the two people I'd be working with directly, and it lasted about an hour. It was pretty relaxed and informal. Then, I had a 30-minute chat with HR about things like benefits, company culture, logistics, and salary.

Behavioral Presentation
I went to the office for my third and final round of interviews. I met with six people who came in to see me in pairs. The interview started out well. I talked about my past social media experiences. When the last two people came to speak with me, one asked me what I learned about The Richards Group. I thought this was strange since this type of question is usually asked at the beginning, not the end. It felt like everyone was very egotistic about working at the company for so long. One person had wandering eyes and did not pay attention when I explained my past experience working for a startup, not an agency. In the end, I did not have a good feeling about the interview. The office felt very old-school and cultish.

Behavioral
The interview itself was pretty average, but the feel of the place was very cultish. Everybody I interviewed with spoke about Stan and what he likes, dislikes, etc. It almost seemed like they were brainwashed. The building was amazing, but on my tour I was shown the women's restroom and told that at night you can see into the restroom from I-75. She then proceeding to tell me, "Stan loves bringing guys in here and showing them that they can see the women's restroom from the road". She thought it was funny, but I thought it was creepy. I've read several reviews that said sexism runs rampant here and she pretty much confirmed that with her story. I got the impression that the people were very fake and it's hard to grow in this company. I was even told by one of the interviewers that the company culture is "every man for himself" Overall, it seemed very sterile and creepy.
