Did you have to take a test to get an interview for your current position? How difficult was it?

Yeah, I had to do a writing project. Basically show that I know how SEO and content marketing works. It was pretty simple and straightforward and only took a couple of hours.

Personality type test, which I apparently failed because I didn’t get an interview after I took it. That’s a big hit to the self-esteem.

Nope. I did have to do a few take home assignments as part of the interview process. I normally balk at this, but the company made sure I knew I would be getting paid for doing it, regardless of if I got the job or not, so I didn't mind.

In my current role there was a case study component. It definitely requires a lot of practice beforehand. In consulting this is usually a standard component.

For this current role, I had to take a skills assessment test and a personality test. They were fine. It wasn’t anything I couldn’t handle. I’ve definitely had jobs in the past where the tests were way more difficult than they needed to be.
