I applied online. I interviewed at SenseTime (Shanghai, Shanghai)
Interview
The interview process included a portfolio review and some questions. I was asked to walk through my past projects and explain my design decisions. The team focused on my process and how I collaborate with engineers and stakeholders rather than just the final visual output.
