      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Naughty Dog

      Interview

      No interview is scheduled. A design test is given before the interview and I didn't pass the test. (insert a extremely sad crying face) HR and people in charge of sending out the test are very nice and always get back to me on time.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I can not share it because it is under NDA.
