J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Enchanted Celebrations en juin 2021
Entretien
Messy to schedule an interview. Interview felt impersonal and somewhat insulting. They expect you to work with them for free to start
Their system of booking is as follows: you sign an onboarding contract, you give them you're entire availability schedule, then they book you whenever you say you are free. There is not an accept/reject date phase of booking. This means you have to micromanage their proprietary calendar and there is a risk that you may agree to work with a different client on a date only to later that day find that they have booked you on a date which they though you were free.
She said they need to see my raw files to know what they are getting from me and I said I will happily share my prior work with them but I will not work for free.
It is their policy to juice you for free labor.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
I struggled understanding the interviewer's accent but she asked questions like:
-Are you willing to free up your day? which she clarified as "if you are booked will you work all day" or something like that.
- do you have experience shooting weddings? this shows she didnt look at my resume or cover letter.
-we require you to "shadow" until you have enough experience despite my working for 3 years as a wedding filmmaker.

The interviewer clearly had no experience doing the job they were interviewing candidates for, they want applicants to shadow on a wedding for free which is a pretty ridiculous request for anyone who already has experience shooting weddings and a portfolio to showcase.

Are you willing to shadow a wedding (for free) where you will be filming the wedding?

Filled out a form to apply, that form stated that they want you to perform free work for them as part of "training." Having shot quite a lot of weddings for years, I answered no I would not be willing to perform gratis work for them, and they pretty much immediately rejected my application, despite providing an extensive portfolio.
This should be a red flag to anyone in this industry who has more than one or two weddings under their belt of experience. Run, don't walk, away from this company.
