Thanks for your feedback about your interview experience at Builtworlds. We are sorry you objected to our interview questionnaire. This questionnaire was for a senior level position in the company and the position opening was for the person who would set the strategic direction of content at our business. We had many applications from a very wide variety of research, news, consulting and other types of organizations. The applicants had a wide variety of views on our business and how it should be conducted. In order to be fair and objective in the process, and also because we had just moved through a period of working with people from different media backgrounds with very different views on how to be successful in the space, we elected to develop a detailed questionnaire to put to all candidates. Through this questionnaire, we hoped to ensure that we were being objective in our selection process and were being thorough in identifying a candidate who would fit with our strategic business priorities. The goal was not to gain free consulting advice. It was to ensure, in a post disrupted media world, that we were attracting a strategic level person whose philosophies on media today aligned with ours.
