Rude, patronising and degrading. I was interviewed by 3 white males who were not interested in anything I had to say during the short meeting. I was fresh out of university and had a number of interviews that same day which I had brought my visual portfolio for. I left my portfolio in the corner of the room at the start of the interview, explaining that I brought it for other appointments I had that day. I was accused of brining my work to 'show off' in the 'hope of landing a book deal'. I was mortified and almost broke down. Considering this is a publishing house that produces work for young people, I was shocked and enraged at their absolute lack of emotional intelligence and basic respect for other people. I can't imagine how they treat their employees if that's how they behave with people visiting their office for only half an hour.
