I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Fjordnet (Dublin, Dublin) in Mar 2022
Interview
There was an initial phone call with a recruiter with a few basic questions, next an interview with 2 of the design team to run through your work and ask you some other questions related to your work and more general design thinking related ones.
A recruiter then gets in touch to schedule another interview if they want to move forward with you after the first interview, they set you a design task which you have to present.
I bowed out before the second interview as they had taken months to get back to me and I had gotten a job elsewhere.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Fjordnet (Dublin, Dublin) in Oct 2020
Interview
A Design task is given. We can choose 1 of the 3 different briefs. It's a very simple brief that gives a lot of freedom. Designing an Airline experience, a banking experience or a shopping experience. It's expected to complete this task in 3 hours. We then have to present the task during the interview (a zoom call with 2 interviewers - the director and a Visual Designer for me)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1

Process consisted of two phone screening interviews, the first with a recruiter, second with team members, followed by an in person interview with four team members in the Washington, DC office building.
