I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Hallmark (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
Applied online, got a call back within 24 hours, went in for an in-person interview a week later. Had a good experience, thought I had the job for sure - bummed I didn't get it, but what's bad is that I never heard back from them after the in-person interview, so I had to assume I didn't get it after a month has gone by without any contact. A standard "thank you, but no thank you" email would have been nice.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Hallmark (Kansas City, MO) in Sep 2014
Interview
A friend referred me to Guidant, the agency that took care of temp hires for Hallmark. After a short email conversation with a Guidant supervisor, she had me come in to meet in person. I brought my resume and my physical design portfolio in, met with two Production Supervisors and walked them through my previous job and an overview of each project. It was a very laid back interview. It seemed like they just wanted to make sure that I was fluent in Adobe CS and that I would fit the culture.
