Question 1
The interview was pretty typical; what was so surprising was no one ever explained to me what the job was or what my duties would be. The recruiter had no idea, and I never saw a job description because I was recruited. Even during the interviews, no one could explain what I'd be doing exactly.
Phone & 2x in person. More talking interests than the position, left with more questions than answers about the work, the position, and what they wanted from a producer in this role. Learned in interview it was a contract position, not Full Time as was listed in the job description.
