I spent approximately one hour in a panel interview and completed a timed writing exam. Afterwards, I was given a take-home assignment that required several hours of unpaid consultancy work and free ideas from candidates (i.e. they demanded "a list of priorities" for their website, as well as a review of materials before drafting a one-page memo for the Superintendent filled with ideas and suggestions for advancing the district's current engagement work. The assignment left me feeling taken advantage of, and they lacked any basic courtesy to keep me updated and never sent a formal rejection, despite having invested many hours into applying and interviewing. It is very unprofessional to meet with a candidate in person and fail to follow, and reflects very poorly on them as a public organization.
