Made me take a Psychometric Assessment. 15 minutes is way too short for the questions they're asking unless if you're an insane math wiz. It's insanely dumb for the position I was trying to apply for. Why do I need math for IT related positions?

Question 1
Random math questions with percentages, some "IQ" related questions
I applied online. I interviewed at Crossover for Work (Austin, TX) in Jan 2020
Interview
Started with an online application process that broadened into technical coding objectives, length written question responses, and a practical process optimization activity at the end.
They say you can spend as little as 3 hours on the interview, but I found that to be wholly impractical if you were going to achieve good results. I spent about 12 hours on the full process and got a single-line rejection email with zero reasoning, zero thanks.
Their VP process is suspiciously deep into the weeds of engineering management basics—things I expect my first-year managers to know and do.

Question 1

I applied online. I interviewed at Crossover for Work (Milán) in Aug 2016
Interview
- first assessment via a call
- profile creation on their site
- assignment project to be completed within 24 hours (the most difficult part, be ready to spend all this time to complete the task)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1

One part of the project was to develop a web application, using Java Spring Boot.
