I applied online. I interviewed at MotionLit Services (Burbank, CA)
Interview
The bosses asked some common interview questions, such as a self-introduction and technical details about my reel and portfolio. The process took around 40 minutes and felt relaxed, more like a casual conversation. After that, I was immediately asked to complete a technical test under the supervision of their director. I shared my screen and worked directly in Maya, following his instructions to model, texture, and light the scene.

Question 1
Most of their questions focused on the technical details of my reel, especially on pieces that demonstrated end-to-end skills such as modeling, rigging, and VFX.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at MotionLit Services
Interview
This company is genuinely predatory. I reached out about employment, they got back to me and said they wanted an art test. After ghosting me all week they sent me the art test Saturday morning with a Monday afternoon deadline. Spent all weekend working on the art test to have it done for Monday. After submitting all the materials...crickets, no feedback, no acknowledgment of payment for time or anything. Sent many more follow emails about it, they eventually said they are not hiring. A few months later I followed up and they said they wanted more art tests.
Certainly felt like they used me to create a last minute graphic with absolutely no intention of hire. Given that they want more art unpaid art tests I would not be surprised if this is how they get last minute projects done.
