I went through a total of four interviews for this role. 1 - HR/TA Interview: This was an introductory meeting focused on my aspirations, long-term goals, and how I would adapt to relocating for the role. It felt more like a conversation about fit and motivation than a technical evaluation. 2- Hiring Manager Interview: This discussion centered on my professional background, design processes, and organizational skills. The focus was less on design craft itself and more on how I approach challenges and structure work. 3 - Team Interview: I met with potential colleagues who asked about my preferred design areas and the types of projects I usually handle. This gave me a good sense of the team dynamic and the types of skills they value day-to-day. Afterward, I was given a case study to complete within the following days. 4 - Head of Department Interview + Case Study: This final stage combined elements from the previous three interviews, with a broader conversation about my experience and ways of working.

It was 3 long steps (from 2 of December to 20 of January): 1st- Call with HR (Viktoria) 2nd- Call with Lead of Design (Therese) 3rd- Call with Therese, Solomia and Valeria to explain the case of study. It was really frustrated because they gave to me one day to develop the case of study (and in the process they say that was 4 days). But I gave the better of me. The feedback in the last meeting was really good bud… 11 days before the meeting they say no to me, and don’t say WHY or any feedback. I’m really disappointed. I hope they improve the hiring process. It’s a difficult process but that things make more difficult all.
