      SEO Manager Interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at AnchorFree (Menlo Park, CA) in May 2016

      Interview

      After a recruiter contacted me, I had an initial conversation with the marketing manager, followed by an invitation to go onsite. Once onsite, I interviewed with 4 other people including the COO. All they want is an international spammer. This position has been open for quite some time, so I knew going into it the odds were stacked against me. They won't find a quality SEO because they have a fundamental misunderstanding as to what SEO actually is. And of course, like all horrible companies, they don't send a rejection email.

      Question 1

      What is the best way to spam internationally? (they didn't actually phrase it this way, but you know...)

      Thanks for your feedback! I have personally checked on this and it appears that as you came through a third party recruiter, there was a communication to that recruiter and the expectation that they would then communicate that on to you. As that seems to have not happened, we have revised our policy and now communicate status updates directly to all candidates even if they come through a third party recruiter. As to the comment about spam, I'm not sure how you can spam through SEO, but that is definitely not our intention. We are a mission driven company and we want to make sure that anyone searching for a tool to reach a secure and uncensored internet will find us easily and achieve their goal.
