I applied in-person. I interviewed at PENCIL ONE (Holbrook, MA)
Interview
I spent about 2 hours for this interview. More is about the photography tech interview, includes lighting, camera operating, post production skill test. Product photography experience is must for the position.
I had a phone interview, and was scheduled to come in person. I showed up and met with another photographer, I began the skill test, which was to take photos of objects according to specifications, while I was in the process of working, a person came in and told me that I “didn’t hit accept on the invite” and that someone else was scheduled during my time. I did not receive an invite via email, it was all verbal on the phone. I had to leave the interview, humiliated. Later that day I called the person I interviewed with and I was told that she did not send an invite. I was not updated on this, and she said right after the phone interview someone was hired. No one told me this! I drove an hour to the interview location and was completely humiliated. I’ve never experienced this, completely disorganized!
