      SEO Manager Interview

      Mar 9, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Forbes in Feb 2022

      Interview

      The interview process was similar to most for an SEO Manager position -- a phone screen to test basic knowledge and aptitude, a case study presenting how you'd grow the vertical you would potentially be hired for, and finally a conversation with the GM over that vertical. The interview went well and they had nothing but positive things to say. Without feedback, it's hard to judge if they lacked candor or it's their policy to lead candidates on.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      How would you grow this vertical?

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Forbes

      Interview

      Friendly interviewers — two people asking questions at once could seem stressful, but this didn't. Pressed me on industry knowledge and strategy questions to see how I could bring value.

      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Forbes in Jan 2023

      Interview

      Had an initial phone screening followed by an interview with the Head of SEO. Everyone was really nice, but the assessment/assignment provided was completely unreasonable. Forbes is purely looking for free SEO advice and isn't truly hiring for a position. They just want someone to complete the assignment so they can run with your strategy,

      Was asked to complete an assignment.
