I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Adroit Worldwide Media (Aliso Viejo, CA) in May 2024
Interview
First interview call with some IT tech with basic questions regarding your experience and stuff, most likely you will pass this one. Second super weird interview....you have to share your screen, turn off Grammarly if it's enable and then ask you to listen to a Tech Spec meeting for 6 minutes and take notes. After the 6 minutes call, you will be asked to write down two emails, one for internal team for meetings notes and another one for action items for stakeholder. Never ever had this kind of interview in my life where you have been judged based of a 6 mins tech call which in real life, tech call would be a two way conversation for about 30-45 mins and also calls are recorded for meeting notes and review.

Interview
First a screen by someone who wasn’t in HR. Second a weird “work simulation” … basically listen to a simulated client call about installing a new site and then transcribe and organize the notes. Like wtf is this supposed to test? You know there are like a 1000 tools out there that can transcribe calls. And now of course create summaries via generative AI. And don’t you ALREADY have a written checklist of what you need to install a new site? Does your company not write anything down? Maybe you just trust your “experts” to memorize all the steps lol. I had to share my screen throughout. I could feel that they didn’t trust me. For a company that builds advanced computer vision and machine learning applications, they are surprisingly BEHIND THE TIMES. What a waste of time (for me and for them) for a company that is already far behind its competitors.

Question 1
Listen to this 5 minute simulated call. Write and organize notes. You are tested on whether you can catch tiny details like a "5 amp circuit breaker" while they are speaking a mile a minute.
