We will invite the shortlisted candidates into our office for an afternoon, where you will be provided with a brief, blank layouts and materials to pull together a small project, which you will then present both your mini-project & your portfolio. We will ensure the environment is supportive and comfortable during the interview process, as we want to see your most creative & relaxed selves.
