We first met during THU, at the conference i had my portfolio reviewed and got a good feedback.
When a position openned for 3d artist i sent them an email, and got a phone interview with the lead artist in the project and the producer.
The inerview was good and lasted for almost half an hour.
After this first interview i got an invitation to visit the company in Hamburg for a second round of interviews, this time with HR, and a second producer.
The second interview was very good, and i was impressed by the company.
Before i got back my plane i got the confirmation that the interview was good and that i would receive an offer.
We negotiated in the offer and a short period afterwards here i am :)
