There's an initial application, then a predictive index assessment (personality test), then a culture interview with a current strategist, then a case study, and a final round with another case.

Question 1
Why does your previous experience make you a good fit?
Warning! How you answer the Predictive Index behavioral survey will dictate whether you even have a conversation with a recruiter.
You would think an innovation agency would take a human centered approach to its hiring process. But no, not the case at all. After applying online with a resume, writing sample and work sample, I was sent an email from the recruiter asking to complete a behavioral survey (Predictive Index). One week later, the recruiter emails with a generic response that says "our current needs require a different skill set."
It's disappointing they would come to this conclusion without ever once having a phone conversation with me. You can't help but feel this was completely based on the results of the behavioral survey which while I can see useful, hardly tells the story. It's like they did the quant, but didn't realize they need the qual to dig deeper.
Jump, I hear your CEO wrote a book on empathy. Maybe leverage that to take a look at your hiring process.

Question 1
Can you fill out the Predictive Index? There are no right or wrong answers.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Jump Associates (San Mateo, CA) in May 2019
Interview
I submitted a resume, an aptitude test, and was invited on-campus for an hour long interview with a recruiter. It took a significant amount of time to schedule the interview.
