      Junior Web Designer Interview

      13 Mar 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at PulsePoint (New York, NY) in Nov 2013

      Interview

      One of those openings in which an employer looks for someone who knows everything and is willing to work for little. I have seen "interesting" job descriptions in which s non-tech writer throws around an alphabet soup without knowing what they are talking about, but typically they are either in-house positions and/or startups. PulsePoint was different in that a) they appeared to an established operation b) they claim to be an agency as opposed to in-house. First, the woman wanted to know about my desktop experience, then PowerPoint, then environment, then print, then web mastering, and then programming chops. She specially said they were looking for someone who could perform everything with little hand-holding. All under the job description of Junior Web Designer! I felt what they were doing was comparable to going to an internist resident to ask about their orthopedic and cardiac experiences, and then asking about endodontics as well. Also, I didn't feel that she actually had firm understanding of all those jargons while throwing them around. Perhaps, they were looking for a worker bee that they could pass on everything they don't feel like learning? In reality, most graphic designers freak out at CSS let alone JavaScript. And, they expect a junior designer to perform HTML5? Let's hypothetically say there is someone who spends years and years learning all different subjects, and still miraculous retain them all; Why would he want to work at a junior positon? Overall, I learned when the prospective employer is less than savvy, the process could be a waste of time.
