Crowdform interview questions

Don't waste your time applying. After submitting my application on LinkedIn, a hiring manager reached out to me to complete a pretty time-consuming, three-step design challenge before any interview stage. They asked me to create a video, design a series of LinkedIn posts and write a social media copy for their clients, which, overall, took me 5 hours to complete. Then, it took them over 2 weeks to follow up with the status of my application, which apparently wasn't successful. There's no need to set tasks for content/design candidates when they can share their portfolios with you instead. Expecting someone to spend time on home assignments and give away their creative ideas even before the interview stage is an exploitative hiring process. It seems like a strange practice, if not a convenient way of asking for free work. I regret being naive enough to have spent my free time on these time-consuming assignments.

I checked the company's review here on the Glassdoor website and noticed that there was already a negative review of the selection process. So, I decided to learn from the mistakes of others so as not to go through the same situation. Based on the evaluation of the interview done here on the site, I went to talk to the recruiter about the vision I had of the company that already starts the selection process without at least one direct contact. I asked about the average salary for the position I thought about applying for, but I didn't get any transparency and I was even snubbed for saying what I think of the robotic and inhumane selection process. Bad experience. If you're going to be treated like this, you're better off dealing with a robot. At least they don't snub you.
