Like everyone else has said, I had to do an unpaid 90-minute assessment. It was three questions, the first two involved taking a page of almost incomprehensible writing and turning them into short 300-word paragraphs. The last was categorizing types of fruits and vegetables.

1. Take these pages and turn them into a short script for a training video.
2. How could someone categorize this list of fruits and vegetables? (by color, by size, etc.)

The first step is a 90-minute writing assessment. The assessment sent up all sorts of red flags for me, and it made me wonder what their process and expectations are for writers. The assessment gave me the impression that this is a fast food word factory, which isn't something I would be interested in. This could have been clarified with a 15-minute screening call instead of requiring me to give up 90 minutes of my time on a bogus assessment. Instructions and parameters of the test were also very unclear, and they did not specify whether use of AI was permitted. AI is a very obvious solution for what they're asking, and you might as well hire robots if you don't understand how a human writing process actually works.

First item on the assessment was to take 2 pages of gibberish and distill it down into an introductory script for a training video. You are advised not to include any outside research, only what's been provided (which they said is a "real life" situation), and that we should assume we aren't able to ask the client for any clarifications.
