      Sr. Art Director Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Medium in Aug 2020

      Interview

      I am familiar with Medium's editorial efforts and was really looking forward to meeting the team. Recruiting team was organized and friendly, and helped to set me up with phone screens and meetings fairly quickly. While I genuinely appreciate the editorial output of Medium, the department head or managers came across fairly inexperience and was probably not responsible for the overall vision and direction. Ultimately, I decided not to proceed with the interview due to a lack of clarity about the role and left with a general unease about Medium's editorial team.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I wish I had been asked more thoughtful questions about my work and process by senior executives on the panel. Instead I was asked things like 'how long does something like this take you to make?' which is code for 'we're slave drivers and overwork our team'. I did not get to meet the entire art team, which was a missed opportunity for Medium and for me.
