I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at StudioNorth (North Chicago, IL) in Feb 2019
Interview
I spoke with the Events Experience Director who lives out of state as my first intro to StudioNorth, and from there scheduled an in-person interview with 3 people (CEO, COO, and Client Services Director). The interview was with all 3 men at the same time and unexpectedly the CSD asked me to "present/problem solve" a mock client creative issue. It was very strange. I've had to prepare and present during interviews before but this felt scattered and unprofessional.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at StudioNorth (North Chicago, IL) in July 2014
Interview
Showed my work on my laptop. They needed someone quickly, so it was easy. The CD interviewed me, and I didn't meet any of the team. I started the next week. I freelance for 6 months and then they offered me a full time position.
The HR guy was awkward and after a comment I made about the conference room looking like a set out of Star Trek, he replied that there was a Star Trek themed restaurant years ago nearby. ??
