Behavioral Presentation

I applied online and totally missed their emails because they went to spam, but they were super persistent and sent a bunch of follow-ups which was great, and they still accommodated me for the interview. The person I spoke with asked some really good questions and was super clear about the whole process and the offer: it's as an Independent Contractor without benefits, but they said they'd adjust the salary to make up for it. I also met one of their heads who was very professional and upfront. Everyone I've met so far from the company has been really nice.

The interview process feels a bit off, with some deliverables seeming unrealistic. It's a bit of a red flag that this would be their first marketing hire after operating for 20 years. They also don't offer any benefits, making the role feel quite unstable. I asked about culture and team-building, but there was a lack of response. For a relatively small company, they're asking for a lot: 6 interviews plus 2 assessments.

Behavioral Technical

I got an interview with HR two days after applying. They were fast! Mostly asked about tradeshows and events. They need someone for a full-time contractor role (no benefits, but higher pay as I understood). They said it's a 5-round process, which is a lot but I guess it makes sense since it's their first marketing hire.
