I applied online. I interviewed at Crossover for Work in Dec 2023
Interview
As others have said, there are progressive assessments. I passed the first few and then was asked to do the "real world" which was 2 parts--first was 1 hour and 2nd was 3 hrs. AFTER i did the 3 hour assessment, they sent me an email that i didn't pass the 1 hour one--which was BS anyway--but they could have told me before i did the 3 hour one. PITA and won't be interested in other positions they have.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Crossover for Work (Sri Potti Sriramulu Nellore) in Dec 2023
Interview
I applied online with a CV and tailored cover letter and some hours later received two automated emails asking me to register online.
I have never heard of such a time consuming hiring process as the following.
Listen to this madness.
First you create an account and watch a short video where it says they only hire the top 1% of people and basically pride themselves on putting you out.
Then they want you to do a skills assessment for 2 hours 15 mins and THEN "real work assessments" for 4 hours!!
Then, presumably if they like you after a whole day of labour doing that, they interview you.
Salary is listed in USD but was visible to me in Europe, there is no conclusive word about whether they would be able to hire me from my region anyway.
There is no company I have EVER heard of that wants you do do so much unpaid labour before interviewing you, and this is a huge red flag.
The listed salary of $100,000 for a content writer position also sounded too good to be true so I declined to go further.
If the hiring team are reading this, I would advise an interview first, then if you are serious about proceeding, all the tasks. And pay people for their labour. If not, that level of free work is exploitation.
