I applied online. I interviewed at PowerSchool Group
Interview
First a screening call with HR rep.
Then asked to take a CCAT test. Twice - the second time is supervised to make sure you are cheating.
Then interviewed with multiple people across the marketing team - one joint interview, and 2 individual interviews.

Question 1
Describe how you would apply your previous experience to this role.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at PowerSchool Group (Folsom, CA)
Interview
Interview process was off-putting. Multiple reschedules definitely gave the impression folks were either overworked or didn't value the role. I asked to withdraw my candidacy after 2nd interview due to this impression and was assured it was an anomaly and I should just hang in and it would get better. First person I spoke with was kind and interested and had a great conversation. Second interview was dry and interviewee seemed uninterested (maybe I am not interesting). 3rd was borderline rude, aloof and wanted me to know how busy and important she was so I just accept the reschedules and be happy I had her time now. Overall very poor impression of culture and the value they place on people.

Question 1
Don't remember exactly but standard stuff about experience.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at PowerSchool Group in Jun 2018
Interview
Very Straightforward, all my interviews were done remotely. It took a while to go from application to interview but I've had worse. You have to do the intelligence test twice, which was odd and made me feel not important but other than that everything was adequate.
