I had one recently where the first stage, before you’d even spoken to a single person, was an assessment with an estimated duration of 76 minutes. Camera on was required and they’d be taking periodic snapshots of both my screen and my camera.
Immediately noped out of that and told the hiring team why.
- e40 2y agoThat sounds insane. What was the position?
- iamacyborg 2y agoIt was for a chief of staff position. The company sells hiring assessments software so it makes sense that they used their own product, it was just at a completely wrong part of the hiring funnel and highlighted, to me, what seemed like an incredibly cynical view of what hiring should look like.

- johnnyanmac 2y agoI had that. No way I was gonna install such invasive software with no guarantee of a human even caring about my work. If you're hiring manager can spend 10 minutes sussing out if my solution was using AI or not without sitting there watching over my shoulder, then that says more about the company than me.
