Following the screening interview, I met with the hiring team member(s) who used AI tools to ask extremely difficult long-form questions. The interviewer looked off-screen to use AI to ask and evaluate questions, which were several paragraphs long. When I asked to clarify the context, it was met with confusion from the interviewer who asked the question.
These signals indicated to me that this is not a good company to work for, especially since the staff rely so much on AI that they don't know what the answer is to their own AI-generated questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Workshop Digital
Interview
3 interviews (the last two an hour each) with multiple people asking particular questions about your experience. Lots of hypotheticals and they get into the nitty gritty, so come prepared.
A good candidate should have no problem with this, but beware: before the third interview, they also give you a take-home test that takes an hour+ to complete and will throw out all your qualifications or previous interview answers if they think you didn't do a good enough job on it. They will literally call you out in a snarky way during the job interview over the answers being incorrect, but won't explain what is wrong about them, only inviting you to try it again. Even if you do, you won't get the position, which is a gross thing to do after asking you to spend even more unpaid time on the exam. Their minds get made up quickly, so make sure the test is 1000% correct the first time if you want the role.
Regardless, spending that much time all for naught was an incredibly demoralizing experience. What a waste of energy and effort.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Workshop Digital in Aug 2021
Interview
From beginning to end, took over 2 months. Ended up interviewing 3x, including a presentation with case studies. A lot of work/time spent and don’t feel like it proved my abilities.

Question 1
General PPC knowledge questions along with lots of hypotheticals.
Thanks so much for your feedback! We have continuously worked to improve our process and have recently gone through a interview process revamp to help streamline our interviewing compared to August 2021.
