Interview
Applied for a Director level position. Got an email back after a few days asking if I want to interview for a middle manager position. That should have been the first red flag. I reluctantly agree, I mean, why not. A girl’s gotta eat. Then they sent me a link for a one way video interview. Half way through the interview, it turns out it is another bait and switch. This was an interview for a SUMMER INTERNSHIP. Wow.

Fully online recorded responses, the first round that I had was just recording and answering prompts. A couple takes / attempts per question response. Around 7 questions or so were given one at a time.
