30 minute basic interview with admin followed by two awful assignments which would have been followed by two in person interviews with Executives.
First assignment was a ten page document with various types of business cases. Marketing ideas, real world scenarios (responding to a frustrated member), sales intro emails, outcall sales scripts, social media writing (new location opening). This assignment wasn't as difficult as it was time consuming. It took at least five hours to complete.
Second part was a time online skills test. They asked some very difficult questions but the majority of the test were analytics questions based on an excel sheet with a hypothetical WeWork locations with offices, desks, revenue and you had to decide if you would take a deal with potential tenant. You could answer Yes, No, or Renegotiate. The main guidelines and rules you have to follow to answer all those questions was incredibly confusing. Took me the full two hours to complete the test and I leaved one answer to come back to which I didn't have time to. There were 22 questions in total.
I got a good score on the test, only got a few questions wrong as far as I could tell for the multiple choice questions but the rest had to be graded manually. I submitted both assignments in 24 hours, you have 24-48 hours to complete. I heard back the next day with a pretty generic email from the admin that they were going to move forward with better qualified candidates. That was pretty irritating since I spent so much time on the assignments and was not given any feedback so I asked for some. Admin responded that I needed to pay attention to the details and that I skipped one of the questions...and that was that.
Basically I should have seen all this coming from the other experiences I read on Glassdoor but it's obviously gotten worse since they received a pretty high evaluation and are sitting on their high horse now. I think a lot of companies talk about wanting someone with entrepreneur experience and startup experience but they rarely ask about it or take any of it into consideration. I'm also interviewing with Google right now which is notorious for difficult interviews but the process has been amazing so far and every interviewer has been super impression and interested in my entrepreneurial ventures.
