Entrevista
I applied for the summer internship program in Sydney, Australia. The application form was easy - no psychometric testing like I’d experienced in other internship applications. A couple days later I received an invitation to a phone interview with one of their recruiters. The interview times available to choose from were pretty inconvenient because the recruiter was based in NYC and I was in Sydney, this is understandable though given the time difference.
The interview was okay, the recruiter was friendly but seemed bored which was difficult to work with and a little disheartening honestly. The questions asked were pretty standard, nothing that I hadn’t encountered in other interviews.
At the end I was told that I would be contacted the following week to let me know whether or not I would progress to the next stage and to reach out if I had any questions/issues in the meantime… 2 weeks later I sent my first follow up email as I had not heard anything yet. I got no response. I sent another follow up 2 weeks after that (now a month since the interview) and also got no response. Roughly 2.5 weeks after that I received what looked like a pretty generic rejection email.
So from being told I would hear back within a week and not hearing back for 7 weeks, even after following up twice, it was a pretty disappointing experience.
Lengthy Interview:
- HR Round (phone call)
- 2 video interviews
- 6.5 hours long onsite interview which includes a design challenge also
They ask for portfolio review at each stage

The process has three rounds: recruiter screening call, portfolio review, and design team interview/hiring manager call. The entire process took about 3 weeks.
Recruiter has been very helpful in answering all my questions and preparing me for the interviews. The people I've met were super nice and knowledgable! Really convinced that this would be a great internship and can learn lots! I would highly recommend everyone to apply!
