I went through the full interview process with CI--a phone screening, an interview, did a mock up infographic, second interview and design test. I thought things were going pretty well. I hit it off with the GM of the paper and I was definitely looking forward to an invitation to join their team. They called me the evening after my second interview to verbally offer me the position. The next morning I received a call around 9am with additional details. Around 10am I received the official offer letter. The letter required that I make a decision within 24 hours of the offer. I called to ask for a one or two day extension so I could really weigh the offer and they said that was okay. Six hours later they called and retracted the offer and voided all the paperwork they'd sent me. After everything I'd been through (4+ hours of driving alone!, several hours worth of interview and an entire day spent creating a mock up of an infographic), it was pretty terrible to be given the offer and have it snatched away in less than 24 hours. Not a good way to do business, especially when you're interviewing people in your area.
