The call only lasted about 15 min (thank god). She babbled on about the company for most of it quite frankly... we do this we do that etc... All information anyone would probably already have if they had done any preparation for the interview. I really was only asked 3 questions: 1- Tell me about your experience? 2- What are you working on now? 3- Have you ever worked for a video-game dev platform before? No questions about what do you do if "x", do you have good media contacts... pretty much a waste of her time and mine. She was clearly not serious or even prepared. Her Linked In profile says she is a tech recruiter, which may be part of the problem... they shouldn't have her hiring for non-tech positions she obviously doesn't understand.

I felt all of the questions were fair. In the in-person interview, they asked questions about my experience and other questions to get to know me. I had a lotos experience in one are of their work, but not much in another, so we talked about that quite a bit.
