I have been working at Intact full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
First of all, Intact is a product-oriented company, not an agency, where people work on tones of different projects at the same time and don't have other life than work-work-work. I worked in many different not-product companies before joining Intact and I’ve never had the same freedom to do a real UX as I have now at the lab. I don’t have to constantly prove that I need to do this or that type of activity. If I need to do some workshops, run a round of research, do an interview with customers, I always have a green light for that. Every time I speak with my ex-colleagues from other companies, I realize that I’m so lucky working at Intact lab, cause I have everything I need to deliver a great user experience. All my solutions are client-centered because I had time, all recourses and right instruments in my hands to understand who my customers are, so I design solutions for them, not for some fiction ones, imaginable users. This fact makes me happy and I feel accomplished at my current place. If you really care about users, you are passioned by research, you want to find your own voice and you want to be heard, this place is for you.
Cons
Sometimes, management could be a little bit more organized, but this is not a bit issue. Overall everything seems work fine last years
Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Intact (Montreal, QC) in April 2019.
Interview
J’ai envoyé ma candidature via le site internet, deux jours plus tard j’ai reçu un e-mail pour faire une entrevue par vidéo. J’ai passé l’entrevue par vidéo puis j’ai reçu un courriel me convoquant à une entrevue de groupe. L’entrevue s’est bien déroulée. À la fin, ils nous ont dit que cela prendrait deux semaines avant d’avoir des nouvelles. Si c’est négatif ils nous enverront un courriel, et si c’est positif, ils vont nous appeler. Trois semaines a passé et je n’ai reçu aucunes nouvelles ni par courriel ni par téléphone, je trouve que c’est un manque de professionnalisme de leur part. Ils ont quand même été gentils lors de l’entrevue.
