Do some art tests, then work on your won stuff and then you'll see what's more fun ;) Seriously, some test do make sense and some can be fun. But I also came across tests that made you really wonder if an artist looked over your resume and folio before having the HR drone hand you the standard art test that makes you…
For whatever reason, I can't get past the art test stage. I've done the interviews, where they said everyone liked me, and my work, I've done the art test, where they said it was great. But I still can't get hired. The last art test I did was for a company in California. The way they did things was, check your work on your…
I think the only art test I've done was an on-site art test that was part of a 5 hr interview, and then they ended up offering me $10/hr... heh If it's around the holidays, I wouldn't get too worried. Our office is closed for a couple weeks, and I imagine others do something similar.
Not really the art test itself but after you submit it. I'm finding the experience to be a bit clausterphobic...no real acknowledgment that it was received. It's only been a couple days and I know it's the holidays, but I'm just curious what you guys have gone through in the past? Initially things were very positive. My…
Haven't done any tests myself, but i kinda know the feeling from entering contests and such. Can really deflate you from doing more art waiting to hear if you got the job or won the contest. I think the best you can do is expect the worst, just assume it didn't work out, this way you can continue pushing forward, doing…
I think with N-Space, I applied in August, got the environment art test in March, emailed back and forth about it till the very end of May when they started hiring character artists, and then asked if I could take the character art test, was contacted the next day after sending it in, a week later I had the interview and…
I hate it when companies take forever to come back to you. Aside from the quality, it just shows how (little) they appreciate your effort and work. Makes you wonder if you really want to work for some of those places, but then again, you already wasted your time. art tests....feh. Only do them for people who're really…
The last art test I did, I past , and got a follow up phone call. then I did'nt hear back for a week when I did , they said they reviewed my resume and felt I did'nt have enough experience for the job. I felt a little odd about that one a) they where probably right but ... b) guess they should have read the thing before…
Its probably the industry standard hurry up and wait game. rush to do things then wait a few weeks as everyone gets their say in. on all of the art tests I've done HR emailed me back that day saying they got it and would hand it off to the art team, then get back to me. but you are right about it being the holidays,…
