TheNewsletterPro interview questions

I had a quick 10 minute interview with a hiring coordinator followed by another 15 minute interview with someone else. I was then asked to interview the hiring coordinator who acted as a CEO. After the interview, I had three hours to write an article for a newsletter. Beforehand, I was given examples of the client for voice and tone, although they failed to send them to be and I had to ask for them. Usually I do these kinds of writing tests after I know the job's salary and more about the job itself. Not much was disclosed to me. Frankly, I would have preferred they had been upfront about the job before a took so much time out of my day to write for a job I didn't get. I can't put my finger on it, but there's something sketchy about this place... maybe it's a good job for a novice writer but I've been around the block a few times.
