      I interviewed at Penguin Random House

      Interview

      3 Online questions, about how you dealt with certain scenarios. One of the worst screening processes I have come across. You are judged on three skills from these questions, and you get rated on a scale after the applications are submitted. If you do not reach the minimum, you do not pass through the stage. Despite claiming no bias, it seems like an incredibly biased response, because it is very unusual to base someone's character off three answers. Not a good interview process.
