He wanted to see my portfolio and have an explanation of my previous works. He was looking for someone with a lot of experience. Clearly I did not have such a big experience, as I graduated few months earlier, but he offered me the position anyways. After about a month and a half I quit due to the stressful environment and the excessive working hours (over 10 h pd). I got the payment after a month, after several mails I sent him to remember, and with 200 € less than we have agreed months before (I got 600 € for all the time I spent there). I tried to reach him by mail and calling the office for a month trying to understand why, but of course I never got a response.
