Entrevista
Fairly comfortable and easy. I was looking for a new position because the previous company, which was a very renowned home textiles company, wasn't utilizing my skills. This was disappointing and frustrating because they could not find a spot for me, I had no choice but to leave. I wanted to be in a place where I would be using my color and textile knowledge I learned in college. I expressed all of this during my interview with Madison88 and I really truly felt they were going to make me a part of their family. They were very impressed with my knowledge and portfolio and offered me the position within 5 days. The only major drawback was there was a pay-cut. I took the position anyway because I knew I would finally be in an environment where I would be learning so much and be a part of the creative process. It turned out the opposite. They didn't follow through with any of their promises. It was a wasted year of my professional life. Madison 88 prides themselves on being a small company, somewhere fashion/textile graduates can have "individual attention to grow and learn" instead of being "overlooked in a big corporate company". But actually I've learned more in the past 5 months at my current position (which is a big corporate company) than I ever did in my year and 3 months at Madison 88. They just don't have time to train JR level employees. They just need people to take care of the dirty work to help the Senior developers.

Entrevista
My first round interview was with one of the Senior Product Developers and went great. Second interview with the owners was confirmed the next day for the following week. My interview with the owners went exceedingly well also, I left feeling extremely confident and thought I had the job in the bag. After almost two weeks of not hearing back I followed to check on the status of their decision. After about another week of two, I finally received a response from one of the owners giving excuses as to why it took so long to respond, that they were still working on a final decision. I followed up again a week later, to which I never received a response at all.
Two months after my second interview, at which point I had assumed I was not getting the position, I received a message requesting my references and then was offered the job two days later.
Although I was happy to get the job in the end, the entire process was very frustrating and unprofessional.
