The initial recruiter and Senior Manager of Recruitment phone interviews were great and very professional. I felt my background and experience were a good fit for the role. Then, I was scheduled for an in-office interview with the team and upper management, but it got cancelled last minute because I had to take a timed online "Marketing Math" test. I was surprised because I've never had to do that as an HR professional, and I questioned if it was legal and how it would actually test the skills needed for a recruitment role, especially given my employment law background.
