Interview
I participated in phone interviews for a Design Principal role on two different occasions, Nov. 2019 and Aug. 2020. The questions were relevant to the role and what they were looking for in the ideal candidate for the role. However, after my Nov. 2019 interview, I never received any updates as to my candidate status. However, after my 2020 interview, I quickly received an e-mail letting me know I had not been selected to move forward.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell us about yourself (very generic question but it has been a while)
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Education Elements in Dec 2019
Interview
The interview process was quite extensive for an entry-level position -- I had 2 phone interviews, 2 video conference interviews, and was supposed to be flown to San Fransisco to interview in person before they cancelled it at the last minute.
The questions were often redundant, almost as if the interviewer confused your responses with other candidates or didn't remember what you had talked about in previous conversations. I was also asked to complete 3 skills assessment assignments. Two of them were practically the same assignment, but one of them I completed on my own time and emailed to the hiring manager and the other one I had to complete during a Zoom interview while the hiring manager watched me work in a Google Doc.

Question 1
Why do you think that you're a good fit for this position?

Interview
The process was all over the place. Random emails from a recruiter with only a few hours notice before things were expected of me. Team is distributed and that led to a bunch of headaches with scheduling. Overall the company seems interesting but they are not very organized and it showed.
