I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at New York Times (New York, NY) in May 2025
Interview
Several rounds of interview with senior designers, hypothetical scenarios and weird questions, leading up to assessment where recruiter ended up ghosting. Was never in contact with the designers directly. Never even received a rejection despite having done the assessment. Just no reply.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What if you finished designing merch and later found out the budget couldn't support it?
