EMARKETER interview questions

This was when EMarketer was still Insider Intelligence. After a few standard interviews and some initial written response questions, I was asked to complete an assignment (obviously without pay) that was said to be a two hour assignment, but myself and another experienced, director-level writer friend evaluated it at closer to 10+ hours of work. I was given a short timeline and then rushed on that timeline, to almost immediately be told after submitting that I did not get the position. This was through a recruiter so that could have been a factor.

I agree with the previous review regarding the recruiter. She came across as disengaged and, at times, unprofessional. An interview is a two-way street, and the recruiter typically sets the tone as the first representative of the company. There were several awkward pauses, and she offered minimal information about the role and team without prompting. It was clear from her lack of interest that this would not be a good fit for me moving forward.
