Math test before interview. It's really silly because it has nothing to do with anything and I had to relearn how to do mental math on stuff no one uses like long-division since you're not allowed a calculator. It made no sense at all with identifying if I'm good at my job, which I am.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Had a really stupid math test for doing mental math like long division, which disqualified me from doing the interview, and has nothing to do with my career.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Crossover for Work (Islamabad, Islamabad) in Jan 2022
Interview
I applied for the Senior Product Designer role at Aurea Software a week back via Crossover. I received an invitation for an interview from Emily Riccardi two days back and scheduled an interview.
I was excited and had already started preparing for the interview. However, I received an email a while back that says I have been rejected from the role. I find this very odd as this email comes after I received an invitation for an interview.
When I reviewed the job description, I knew I have the required skillset and experience. My application for the role included getting through a series of challenging assessments with flying colors (99th Percentile on CCAT, 99% on the Spoken English Test, and Advanced Rating on the Design Assessment). But, after the entire process, getting a rejection email without even an interview seems extremely unfair.
I wouldn't recommend applying to Crossover, getting your hopes all high, and then ending up extremely depressed.
In case you're still wondering, all those negative reviews about Crossover are true.
