Interview
Positions are posted on the website, where, after completing basic information and attaching your resume, you are directed to a flash presentation about the company. It explains a little about what they do and the position and department the ad is for. Careful though--half the positions under varying headings are all for the same call center position. After the presentation, you are given a form to schedule an interview within the next two days. The initial interview takes about 3 minutes and you will have to come back for the writing test. When you arrive for the group writing test, the hiring manager will go over some detail about the position and give you an overview of the test. You will have 45 minutes to complete the test. Once completed you will have another 1:1 interview with the hiring manager or another manager. Within a week you will receive a call for a third interview, an offer, or a decline.

Question 1
You have no experience, what makes you think you can do this job?
Started with a phone interview, then onto an unpaid 8 hour "work day" interview. They told me I had the job, led me on and then never started. This "company" is a total unethical scam.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SoftRock (Orlando, FL) in Dec 2013
Interview
I came across the position opportunity through OrlandoJobs.com. Within 3 days after I submitted my resume, the Department Manager called to schedule my interview for the next day. About an hour before my interview, I found out through email that there would be general interview, followed by a 1 hr Copywriting test.
The general interview was more like the Manager going over my resume with me. I wasn't really asked many questions, and it lasted less than 10 minutes. She then explained exactly what the position, and went over the instructions for the test.I was then taken to the room next door and given the 1 hr Copywriting test that I had to do on a laptop. I had a list of 30 long job ads/descriptions, and I had to pick and write 6 concise job ads from the 30 (as well as explain why I chose the jobs I did).
After the test, the Manager came in, and asked how I felt about the test overall and my initial impressions of the company. I was told I'd hear back soon.

Question 1
"I see that you don't have much work experience..."
I also wasn't totally prepared for the Copywriting test, and didn't know it would take place on the same day.

Interview
Responded to a job ad and scheduled an interview via website. Short interview that consisted of position details like salary, etc, then invited back for group test for writing competency. After writing test, spoke with hiring manager and was able to ask any questions/give feedback and get comfortable with the position, was also asked if I wanted to work full time or part time - they only hire full time now, but I began as part time. Was told that I would be called within a week with an answer. Received call a few days later and accepted the position.
