Interview questions [1]
Question 1
An example of when I had difficulties/obstacles that I overcame.
I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Springer Nature (London, England) in Aug 2019
Interview
I was phoned out of the blue and asked a few interview questions.
I then received a 3000 word document via email to "copy-edit". I was provided with vague instructions on how to complete the task, and because of this it took up a lot of my time.
After submitting the document I had to wait over a month to receive a rejection email and some feedback.
I was glad to receive feedback, but it was not well articulated and was overly critical/condescending in tone.
Not a great experience overall. Long waiting times and bad communication.
