Nex interview questions

Process: Extremely Long — 5+ Rounds over 3 Months The Process The interview process at Nex was one of the most exhausting and disorganized experiences I've had as a candidate. What was described as a straightforward Q&A round turned out to be a live design exercise with no prior warning — which, while I can handle, shows a lack of respect for candidates' time and preparation. The process spanned 3 months and included 5+ rounds — individual interviews, a full portfolio presentation, a culture interview, and multiple sessions with the same interviewers. On multiple occasions I was explicitly told a round would be the final one, only to be scheduled for yet another interview with no explanation. Interviewers were frequently late to calls and on multiple occasions cancelled hours before scheduled meetings with no notice or apology. The Final Round The last interview was a live design exercise conducted by the hiring manager himself — who openly admitted at the start that he had no idea how to conduct the exercise and was figuring it out as he went. For a candidate who had already been through months of interviews, this was genuinely demoralizing. The lack of structure made it impossible to know what was expected, which is unfair to candidates who have invested significant time and energy into the process. The exercise also involved their own product — which felt less like a fair assessment and more like free design consulting. The Outcome After completing all rounds I followed up three times before receiving any response. No feedback was given. No explanation for the rejection was provided. For a process that asked this much of candidates over three months, the lack of closure is disrespectful. For Future Candidates Be prepared for a process that will ask everything of you and tell you nothing in return. Expect live design exercises regardless of what you're told beforehand. Expect the goalposts to move — what they call the "final round" may not be. And unfortunately — be prepared to never know why if it doesn't work out. The product is genuinely exciting and the mission is real. But the hiring process does not reflect the care and thoughtfulness the company claims to value. Other candidates deserve to know what they're walking into.

Originally applied for Game Artist (both 3D and environment), later expressed interest in technical artist role. Applied via their official website. One hr online meeting + one round of onsite interview. Onsite (1 hour): One hour of portfolio walkthrough with 4 ppl, What you have done, how and why made such decision. They didn't specify how you should do the walkthrough, I did it with a Google slide including four chosen Blender projects. Pretty enjoyable as I get to share my works. Showing what, how you learn, your motivation etc, probably my walkthrough involve more technical stuff? That I eventually ended up in Technical side intern. What they expect (for self-taught): They didn't expect you to have any solid art foundations, and more or less optional given that I am an self taught artist, as long as you show your works (I shared the links to my whole DeviantArt and Artstation), and your interests. Negative Side: Slow response, one of their hiring ppl is on vacation, told I will get the reply before the end of April, delayed for 2 weeks, I almost moved on.
