I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Pleasant Solutions (Edmonton, AB) in Aug 2019
Interview
It was a really exciting interview, I had no idea what to expect and was curious about why a tech company was looking for a script and blog writer. The CEO, Thomas Stachura, interviewed me and his vision to create a film studio in Alberta won me over. I was moved that he had taken the time to read my blogs and saw something unique in my writing. The CEO was so enthusiastic that I went from being kind of curious to handing in my notice at the College where I was working. I loved teaching but this was a creative opportunity I could not turn down.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Thomas asked me to imagine what my week would look like, how many hours I wanted to work and what time I would like to arrive and leave. He then did a comparison between the company I was working for weighing the pros and cons of working here or staying where I was. The flexible hours won me over, I loved the idea of being able to eliminate day care costs and pick up my children early from school.
