It was a 3 stage process: phone interview, one design exercise, and an in-person interview. The interview itself was conversational, and I mainly spoke on my experience through an exchanging anecdotes with the people who interviewed me.

I applied for the role of Graphic Designer online through the Ocozzio website and first received an email to meet with the Creative Director. The interview was very basic but she made me comfortable and asked some fun design questions like what my favorite font was. I also brought along my design portfolio and we looked over some designs I made during my time with a previous employer. I was then emailed again to come in and meet with the CEO, Russ. He is a tough interview but he means well. During my interview with him, he asked some hard questions and wanted to know what made me so different than all the other people who applied for the job. My best advice for handling an interview with Russ is to show him what you can offer Ocozzio and don't ask what Ocozzio can offer you. He is looking for people who are hard workers and those who can handle criticism without taking it personally since marketing and business can be a cut-throat world.
