Great interview. Interviewers took their time to get to know me and my qualifications. The conversation was productive and was about 30 minutes long. Overall I had a positive experience during the interview process.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at HKS (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2024
Interview
Two people interviewed me and gave a brief introduction of themselves and the company. Then I was asked to introduce one/two projects in the portfolio, and then an office tour.
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at HKS in Mar 2023
Interview
I had a virtual interview on zoom with two recruiters/architects. The conversation went well and they seemed interested and engaged. However, the interview was timed and they had to jump to the next person. I still had a lot of questions for them so I emailed them to follow up. No one got back to me for two weeks so I emailed them again and nothing. I find it disrespectful and disappointing to interview someone just to ghost them.
