My experience interviewing for the Lead Content Marketer role was incredibly frustrating and left me feeling like the entire process was just a box-checking exercise. There is a strong suspicion that the company had already identified an internal candidate or someone the hiring manager knew, and they were simply conducting interviews to fulfill a mandatory process.
To make matters worse, it was only late in the process that I discovered the role was actually for their other website, TQRCG, which had not been disclosed earlier. This felt like a classic "bait and switch" regarding the scope of the position.
The feedback I received on my take-home assignment was equally disappointing. Felt like they were looking for free consulting work
