Heist interview questions

I was interviewed over a year ago at Heist Studios office in Camden. As I see Heist's popularity grow on social media as a pro-women brand, I have begun to reflect on my experience with them. My experience was very similar to another negative interview experince I read here. Firstly, when I arrived at the office it appeared as if no-one knew I was being interview, despite having communicated via email with the company that day. When someone finally arrived to interview me, I found they were very dismissive. No questions had been prepared and little effort was made to ask about my qualifications or experience. Having walked into the interview with great admiration for the brand purpose, I found the interview process very down heartening. I never received any further communication from Heist Studios, but as by then I had lost faith in their authenticity as human focused company, I didn't really mind.

A phone interview, followed by a face to face interview in their office. I must have walked into the office at a busy time because the mood was a bit intense and deflated. I found the interviewer to be scatter brained and flakey. I can understand that it could have been a busy time, but it they didn't actually know what they were looking for, which for me was extremely frustrating, but also telling. When asked point blank what the role they were looking to fill is, he couldn't answer ("we're not sure yet.." uhh?). For an ambitious company who says they respects people's time, these actions did not reflect this at all - it seemed they were more window shopping for a potential creative and some new ideas, rather than a specific need or role to be filled. Needless to say I was not there to for this purpose.
