J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Aquent (Portland, OR) en mars 2023
Entretien
I got an email that claimed I was one of the top candidates and I need to reply “YES” to show that I’m still interested in the position. The next day, I was sent an email with about 15 interview questions that I was required to complete within the next 90 minutes of when the email was sent. There was no scheduled time for answering the questions. My only timeframe was within the early morning when the email was sent.

Easy enough but still challenging. I e joyed the recruiter but the job didn’t seem like a good fit so I had to pass. I like the vibe of the interviewer and the communication was really good.

Easy and fun, but I had to take a test (for the exact thing I've been thriving at for years), and I apparently didn't do that well. I've found that these skills tests agencies always seem to give test obscure, impractical aspects or features of apps and programs that are rarely used in everyday work. Or, they're so intuitive that anyone can pass one. Sometimes they use such unusual problem examples it has you wondering who comes up with them. In the end, they made me feel kind of outmoded, which, as fast as technology moves, isn't hard to do to anyone. Awhile after that, they did send me a lot of contract job offers on and off, but they were so far from where I lived that commuting would have been problematic.
