Interview
I applied online at the beginning of the summer and got a call from HR at the end of August. I answered some basic questions and she set up at interview in NYC for the next week. It was a one on one interview with the person I'd be working with and very casual. It was a good experience and I felt comfortable, but it did not end up being a good fit for me.

Interview
Two video interviews and one in person. Video ones were awkward but worked out in the end. Took to long to hear back and didn't get any feedback, that wasn't fun. Felt very corporate.
Group task of deciding how to market a book, and one-on-one interviews that were quite casual and asked about your personal interests in reading. There were also group presentations on how you think the books should be marketed,

Interview
They asked a few questions I has already answered twice in the application, which I though was fine because we went through them quite quickly. But then they asked if I would need visa sponsorship in the future, to which I replied I would. They automatically told me that this company would not ever be able to hire me unless my status changed. I understand the position but I had already answered this question twice before the interview and it just made me feel like they did not even read my application all the way through before contacting me.

Question 1
