I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at a + i Architecture (New York, NY) in Mar 2015
Interview
A lead designer started the interview then one of the partners joined us. They were very interested in finding someone with a strong contract furniture background. I sure fit the profile and I was able to present a lot during the interview. Overall it was a very pleasant experience, I was quite relaxed and thought the job was mine.
I didn't get an offer because my salary request was much higher than their target, just like most of the design firms out there.
