I first applied for the Remote Graphic Designer role and was declined. A month later, I applied again for the Remote Art Director role and was told my application made the cut. After filling in more details and doing an English assessment, I was invited to an interview.
The interview started fine with a few questions about my background, but then I was told I would need to complete 8 to 14 tasks a day if I joined with no overtime payment. That honestly felt like modern slavery, a digital sweatshop in 2025. On top of that, they expected direct communication with clients, which didn’t match the Art Director role I applied for.
Things got even more confusing when the interviewer insisted I was registered as a Graphic Designer, not an Art Director. He even claimed he had already sent me another task, but when we cross-checked the email, it turned out he had mixed my address with someone else’s. That mistake really threw me off and left me questioning the whole process.
In the end, I received no further updates about the Art Director role. Instead, I was told I didn’t make the cut for the Graphic Designer role. The test they gave me was also unreasonable: three tasks with only 30 minutes each. No professional designer can deliver quality under those conditions.
Overall, the entire process felt messy, confusing, and exploitative. It left me with the impression of a digital sweatshop rather than a company that values creative professionals.
