Interview
I applied for the job of Polish Freelance Translator in March 2023. After sending my CV, the person in charge of the application process sent me an email with the job's description, their fees and asked me to fill in a questionnaire which I did. On the next day, I received a reply - they told me that they were no longer interested in proceeding with my application. It was a big surprise for me, since the questionnaire I filled in was based on my CV which was... accepted. Thus, I asked them to give me their reason behind the decision and unfortunately I haven't received it. All I want to say that such behavior is very unprofessional and hence I can't recommend this employer to anyone.

Interview
I was sent a test to translate various strings relevant to the company's business. The test felt too complex and time-consuming for an interview process, especially for a freelance contract. It took over 15 hours to complete. The recruiter was very nice and polite, though.
