I submitted my application in late June (2021). Then, after only four days I was contacted by a recruiter for a phone conversation to see if I’d meet qualifications. Within the conversation she expressed I would need to complete an assignment within five days for a quick turn around. This was assigned right before the Fourth of July Holiday with no extension. I completed the assignment and submitted it that Monday. After a week of no response I reached out and received an automatic response that the recruiter was out of office until mid-July. After another week I was contacted with positive feedback and asked to schedule a panel interview. In the interim, I was asked to complete a personality assessment with a few hours turn around time. I took the advice of the recruiter, did my homework, and thought the interview went very well. There was amazing dialogue and the structure of my answers genuinely impressed the panel. I was given a time frame of “a few weeks” until I hear back. After 6 business days, within the 5-7 business day window, I was contacted and told the team enjoyed our conversations and was impressed with my background but they went with someone that had a bit more expertise. It was a bittersweet outcome but the company was timely and response.

Brief phone interview with the recruiter to explain the job and functions, followed by a copy editing assignment. The copywriting was a 5 page document I was asked to edit from everything to grammar and language to style and content.
