      Subtitle Editor Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      Los Angeles, CA
      No offer
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at SDI Media Group (Culver City, CA) in Apr 2014

      Interview

      A phone call, a difficult subtitle test, and one interview. Pretty complete. Nothing special to say about it. The production coordinator and another manager were already convinced to hire me when they met me. It was quick and easy. One week later, they were calling me to offer me a on-call position. I stayed like this for one year, before being full time.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SDI Media Group (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2019

      Interview

      I had two interviews for SDI media. The first was a phone interview where I was asked to summarize my work experience. The second was an in-person interview where I was shown around the office and then asked more specific questions about my resume. I then had to take a handwritten editing and technology test that took under an hour and covered windows shortcuts, subtitle formatting, English colloquialisms, and basic grammar and spelling.

      Subtitle Editor Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SDI Media Group

      Interview

      I was contacted by European Language Vendor Coordinator from Philippines, that sent me a trial test. The rate that I was offered was very low (double times lower than average in the industry) and I was said I would get it higher if I did well in the test. Exactly after 1 month of sending them the test, I got back a short email saying I my test didn't meet their requirements (no further explanation, no details, very unprofessional), even though the test was actually quite easy. Somehow my test results were excellent for the companies that could actually offer me the rates that I wanted. So I found this reasoning of SDI company very unprofessional, rude and unadequate. If you cannot afford good candidates, you should state so, without making up excuses that are irrelevant.

      Question 1

      I was asked if I have Windows?
