Had 3x interviews, then was tasked with completing an assignment.
I completed the assignment (took 2+ hours), and no one on the team ever confirmed receipt. I was then ghosted by the recruiter and team from Complex. I followed up multiple times.
Horrible process.
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Complex en juin 2025
Entretien
****Every creative people should be alerted of this company. ****
It is a contract based role. They asked me to complete a ongoing project task which takes about a week to finish, and of course, without any compensation. I've been requested to present the most core, valuable part of the task. I mentioned this is impossible due to the nature of project, and my role as a candidate. They replied "We wanted to see your ability in certain aspect". It makes me feel very disrespectful and unreasonable. Since the role I interviewed is a short contract based role, there are possiblities that they trying to make people do unpaid work by the so-call guise of a creative assessment.
Not to mention the workload is a bit massive for only assessment (hey they need a presentation not just few images could do).
