The interview was very easy in my opinion. I applied online and was sent an automated email to come to a specific location at a certain time. When I arrived, first I filled out an application with standard questions, education/job history, and references. There was also a spot to list social media sites which I assumed is optional. Shortly after I completed the application I was called up to interview. The person who interviewed me was very friendly and overall the experience was very relaxed and relatively informal. Contrary to what some have said on Glassdoor about this process, I did not find anything out of the ordinary about the application or interview.

I applied online and then was replied to through email. This is how i was given the time and date for the email. This is also where a copy of my resume was requested. The interview was at the Pasadena location, which is very far for me, on a day I had specifically marked as unavailable. I arrived late because of a mix up with my ride but was still allowed to interview. First, however, I was told to fill out an application at a desk downstairs and once I had completed it I was taken upstairs for the interview. The interview consisted of asking me about my schedule, my availability, dropping the bomb on me that training is takes anywhere from two to four weeks, and why i want to work there. Overall I felt that the interviewer was pretty knowledgeable about what the program consists of, if not the actual artistic processes I'd be learning about. For a part timer it's also concerning for me when my having a three day availability seems like it is an issue for a part time gig. Especially when I have a lot of experience taking art classes myself and they are generally about 5 hours. This may be because of a difference in class length, though. There was also time alotted at the end for questions I had for her, though I'd been asking them before then, and this is how I got clarification about the pay scale.
