The first step and point of contact was from a recruiter inviting me to complete a writing test. The test was writing an article on the process of closing on a house. I had a week to complete the assignment and then moved onto the next step of editing the article per their instructions. After passing the writing test, I was given links to 10 finance articles and a week to study them. I was interviewed/quizzed via a 30 minute Skype video call with my recruiter. There was one question they wanted me to look into further because I didn't get the answer quite right. Soon after I was scheduled to have another Skype video interview with the CEO. The CEO was extremely busy and my interview kept getting pushed back, eventually occurring over 2 hours after the original scheduled time. The interview was brief; we went over my background, why I want to work at WalletHub/what I know about the company, as well as being quizzed further on the material I read. It was pretty similar to all the other writer interview experiences that have already been posted.

I applied online and I am well suited for the job. I actually have my own finance blog and have a finance degree so I was the best person anyone could want for this position. I was first given an article to write on the closing process which I wrote well. My next step was to read 10 articles on credit cards and be ready for questions about those articles. I studied for about 2 days and knew everything. The day of the interview the call was scheduled with an employee who was in Romania. He was 10 minutes late to the call so I called him. He answered my call and hung up. He ended up saying he was in a call and had to hang up that call to answer mine. So it was a rocky start, and there wasn't any chit chat he just started asking me questions about the articles which I answered. I could hear him typing my responses and he wasn't engaged at all. He asked another question and I answered and he kept saying ok ok, what else? Like wanting me to get the answer incorrectly. Overall, he was very unprofessional and I didn't even want the job at this point. I answered the rest of the questions and the one question I didn't give him a good response to he wanted me to follow up via email. I did, and he responded 10 minutes later that they will not proceed with my application due to my response and application score. I wouldn't have accepted the offer if this process is any indication of how an employee is treated at WalletHub. The other reviews on here are accurate, doesn't seem like a company that cares for it's employees. Had a pretty terrible interview experience.
