Case Presentation Behavioral

A recruiter reached out about a short-term Marketing Manager position. I had a call with the hiring manager, then a case study to complete and present. The presentation was to a panel including the hiring manager and two other marketing managers. During the case study discussion about a plan for an upcoming event, the team seemed very interested and asked lots of questions about the process and strategy to cover any gaps. I had my doubts but did my best because I wanted the role. Lesson learned - I won't do case studies for free again!

Behavioral Case Presentation Group

It was a really disorganized interview process. I went through four stages: HR, the hiring manager, a panel, and then the senior team leader who missed the panel. I had to prep a case study that they gave me only 30 minutes to present, and the parameters were super vague. During the presentation, I mentioned I had to make a lot of assumptions. They cut my presentation time to 15 minutes because they asked so many questions upfront, and then they questioned why I didn't have details they themselves didn't provide. I thought the interview went well, and I had another interview afterward. They told me the hiring manager was on vacation for two weeks and I'd hear then. Six weeks later, I got an automated rejection. I later found out they hired someone internally. Total waste of time.
