      Executive Assistant to President - Part Two Interview

      2 Jun 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Berkeley, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at MapLight (Berkeley, CA)

      Interview

      This is in response to the President's answer to my previous review. Instead of categorically responding to the issues with your interviewing practices, you have provided blanket statements- and in one instance, blatant lie. The HR representative did, in fact, ask to extend the interview time to finish the exercises, which had never been mentioned prior to the interview. In addition to this, I had told the team during the interview process that it would take me time to learn about the subject matter. However, you still deemed it necessary to make me write two long essays in a matter of two hours. How is one supposed to research, analyze and produce that quickly when they have never worked on the issue before? That's not "rigorous", that indicates a sense of entitlement for giving people impossible tasks to accomplish and then not hiring them because they couldn't bring you the proverbial tree of life. Instead of blindly "standing by" practices that are antiquated, and indicate your lack of coordination, communication and management, you should use this feedback to improve the processes.
