Casual, friendly. Listened and responded so well. It was for a contract position so it was much less formal than an employee position would be. I was coming from a different background so we talked a lot about what skills would transfer.

Coming from being a contract worker so things move a bit quicker and more direct. You essentially show up and present yourself and your work as you would any design job. Big emphasis on yourself. Who are you and why you make the design choices you make seem important to highlight, big emphasis on the story. Very important to show you have vision for whichever position you’re applying for. Panel interviews may take the most energy and planning, the 1 on 1s are much more informal. Both relaxed enough... it’s shoes.
