I applied on LinkedIn and received a message for an initial phone screening. I sent through my resume and during the phone call we briefly discussed the role, expectations and company culture as well as my background and what I was looking for. I felt the call went well and at the end was told that I would hear back on next steps (interview with another team member) but never did despite following up. I took the hint. I understand a change of mind or deciding to move forward with other candidates, but this was the first time I was simply ignored. The courtesy of a boilerplate rejection letter would've been nice.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Q: What interests you about this position with Vintner’s Daughter? Q: What are your salary requirements? Q: If you are chosen for the position, when would you be available to start?
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Vintner's Daughter in Jan 2023
Interview
First round was a standard 30 minute chat with CD, which was fine and pretty standard. They required three references, then the next round is a very long 1.5 hour interview to go through all of your experience, then a large campaign project ending with a final presentation. It's a lot.

Question 1
They will go through your entire work history, but not looking into previous work or case studies you've prepared - which as a designer was very frustrating because I had meticulously lined up examples for that interview format. Instead it's the same question for every job "what was your strength, what was your weakness" and occasionally will meander to other areas.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Vintner's Daughter in Jan 2023
Interview
Overall the interview process went smoothly, asked me to do an unpaid test. Other companies, at least, compensated me for my time. (Amazon Gift Card, check, etc.) Waited three weeks for a response and sent 3 follow ups as they told me in the interview that they would get back to me after. The email I received was really dry and didn't provide any feedback as to the decision making process.
