I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Zynga
Interview
They sent me a test to do. They said it was only going to be a total of 2 hours. The test itself says 6.5 hours and it really does take that long. After I did this, which was soon after the phone interview. They never got back to me. I emailed the week after, and 2 weeks after just to know they decided to go with other candidates. I asked if I could get some feedback to how I did on the test, they never got back to me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me of my skills and how they match to the job opening.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Zynga (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2012
Interview
Went very well, they called me for the Lead Position, as their interpretation at the time, of a Lead Artist was entirely different that other companies. But it went really well, spoke to the AD via Skype, did an art test, they flew me out to San Francisco from New York for an interview and it was great. Though, they didn't share my portfolio with the current Lead Artist, or anything about me, and he didn't sign off on me. Though I did get hired, he and became good friends.
