They barely interview you and have you jump into these tedious case studies before they'll even consider you for an actual interview. They ask for digital marketing strategies for the company in a case study. Beware, they might be taking your ideas.

A good thing I came to Glassdoor after my first round of interview with HR and saw the previous interview review because they're doing the same to me as well. I had a brief conversation with HR for the initial screen. She said I sounded like a good fit for a Digital Marketing Manager role and then proceeded to tell me there will be two case studies to complete. I did find it a bit odd to have this assessment so early in the interview process without speaking to the actual hiring manager. One of the case study seemed normal - it asked me to provide a detailed case study on a previous success which is totally fair and normal. The second one is where I was concerned - asking me to complete a COMPREHENSIVE marketing strategy to help them acquire accounting firms. That is literally their entire business model and why they're hiring this role - it is help them come up with strategy to acquire more accounting firms so they can become one of the top 100 CPA firm in the US. Isn't that what they're hiring for? Why the case study to do the entire job before even being hired? They also asked for both to be completed within 3 business days. That is a lot of work for such a short time frame when it is literally an entire job. I will not be continuing.
