I was invited to an Interview by an HR on LinkedIn. We briefly discussed my previous experience and I was told that they’ll be in touch soon. Never heard back from them after the interview.

Overall the interview process was unlike any other I've been a part of. MetaLab has quite the reputation for being a difficult company to get hired by, with high standards, daunting tests and a walled-off culture all part of their mythos. Surprisingly however the thing that doesn't get talked about is how encouraging they are! Yes, there are a series of tests and yes, they take a long time to slowly progress through. Every single time I came in contact with a human, whether an HR person or a design director that I was presenting to, I was taken aback by how friendly, warm and personable everyone was. Despite being turned down initially for the role after working my way through, I felt as though I had people fighting to get me hired and it was a really memorable journey— one where I came out feeling better DESPITE not getting the job!
