      Graphic Designer Interview

      Dec 22, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Aquent (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      It's a one on one conversation with one of their representatives. They usually review your resume, portfolio, and discuss your goals. The overall interview take about an hour. Since this is mainly a temp agency of sorts, they try to pair you up with other companies that are seeking designers and artist with experience. Once you are on board, you are informed that the countless representatives there would be there to help you find employment, whether it is temporary or permanent. I have yet to find an opportunity through this company. The communication with the representative is horrible, attempts to reach out to them for updates by phone, email or online is non-existent.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Aquent (Portland, OR)

      Interview

      Easy enough but still challenging. I e joyed the recruiter but the job didn’t seem like a good fit so I had to pass. I like the vibe of the interviewer and the communication was really good.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Aquent (Portland, OR) in Mar 2023

      Interview

      I got an email that claimed I was one of the top candidates and I need to reply “YES” to show that I’m still interested in the position. The next day, I was sent an email with about 15 interview questions that I was required to complete within the next 90 minutes of when the email was sent. There was no scheduled time for answering the questions. My only timeframe was within the early morning when the email was sent.

      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. I interviewed at Aquent (Philadelphia, PA)

      Interview

      Easy and fun, but I had to take a test (for the exact thing I've been thriving at for years), and I apparently didn't do that well. I've found that these skills tests agencies always seem to give test obscure, impractical aspects or features of apps and programs that are rarely used in everyday work. Or, they're so intuitive that anyone can pass one. Sometimes they use such unusual problem examples it has you wondering who comes up with them. In the end, they made me feel kind of outmoded, which, as fast as technology moves, isn't hard to do to anyone. Awhile after that, they did send me a lot of contract job offers on and off, but they were so far from where I lived that commuting would have been problematic.
