I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at DSTNCT (Singapore) in Sep 2024
Interview
Application was via email, and it was not handled by a hiring manager, but rather the creative director.
They did not ask for an introductory call but straight away gave an assignment that comprises of 3 tasks to be completed in 3days. It seems to me that they wanted a very specific approach to the assignment, without being clear about it. They simply hinted, i quote "be mindful of what we might be testing you on." And when i took a different approach which still answers the brief, i was told my approach "which wasn't the original point". Lastly despite the job ad being on several job sites and LinkedIn, the CD concluded that their vacancy is not particularly urgent.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Did not get an interview, the only question they asked before they gave an assignment is if i was a local citizen or PR
The interview was surprisingly easy and stress-free. The questions were straightforward, and the conversation flowed naturally. I felt well-prepared, and the interviewer was approachable, making the entire experience quite pleasant.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at DSTNCT
