Mainframe Studios Interview Questions

The whole process was very quick, took about a week from application to interview to job offer. The recruiter and interviewers were kind and helpful. They seem excited to build a team willing to learn with them and the production.

I didn't really do a 1 on 1 interview because there were some tech problems, so they just sent me the questions and I replied with the answers which was unusual but actually pretty cool for me because I had the time to think them through and prepare them.

You apply online. They call you first, do a short interview on the phone and then if you pass you go and to the interview with the person in charge of the department.

I went in to their studio where I was interviewed by a supervisor. My reel was played and it was paused at each section for discussion. The project they were hiring for was touched on briefly but no details were given. No details like start dates or contract duration were shared. It was pleasant but it was noncommittal. I got the impression they weren't hiring now or in the near future. I didn't hear back.

Super friendly, casual discussion of my previous experience and minor heads up on what kind of projects I will be dealing with. If everything went positive, they would introduce the candidate to the basic production process followed by the company and also a brief regarding the project will be discussed. The rest of the discussion was via email and telephone after that.

One interview with all lighting supervisors of the current shows the studio was working with. Everyone was super friendly and kept asking basic stuff about my experience in the are and how would I be good for the company. It was super informal, even though there were more than 4 supervisors in the room.

It was very straight forward. I am a junior so they didn't expect any experiences. They described more of what I would expect when I start working. Directors are specifis with the job descriptions. I like how they give juniors opportunities to be part of amazing team

30 minutes interview with the serie and animator director. I sent me portfolio to the recruiter, she phoned me and made some basic questions as available to start and legal docs then she booked the interview for the next week.
