I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UFA (Calgary, AB) in Apr 2026
Interview
Round 1: HR Screening (30 Minutes)
Gatekeeper interview. HR wants to ensure you are who you say you are on paper and that you fit the basic logistical and cultural requirements.
Round 2: Hiring Manager & HR (1 Hour)
This is the "deep dive." The Hiring Manager is looking for technical proof that you can do the work, while HR watches for behavioural consistency.
I had one screening call with the recruiter and one in person interview with the recruiter and hiring manager. It was about 3 weeks in between each step. The online portal was easy to use to check my application status.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UFA (Calgary, AB) in July 2023
Interview
1 phone call, then an in-person interview that was followed up with an offer. Pretty typical for a creative role, meeting with the creative director, talking about past work and approach to work.
