      Game Artist Interview

      8 Aug 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Big Fish Games (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2010

      Interview

      The HR person who briefly interviewed and screened me was very genuine, and seemed to understand the creative process, and gave me positive feedback concerning my eligibility for the position. After viewing my portfolio, and demonstrating confidence in my ability to attain a position with the company gave me a complete tour of the offices, and wished me luck with my interview.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I was interviewed by two of the lead game artists assigned to a project on which I would have been assigned a contract. After completing a skill test, which they demonstrated excitement, and confidence in, I was asked to show more (past) examples of the type of work that was performed in the test. I can not, to this day, figure out why anyone would care about an artists past skill-set as opposed to their most recent, and most relevant work. I was denied this position because I did not have a backlog of relevant work, however, had a current, on-demand example of the skills required for, and expected by this company and position.
