The job of the employer when looking for a job
Currently I am looking for a job for quite a long time (specialization - “Internet project manager”) and recently noticed a tendency to start giving assignments and, after completing them, invite me for an interview.
Do you think this is right?
Over the past month there have been three similar employers:
1st - I asked to make a usability audit and suggest the look of the main page. This employer gave a similar task 2 months ago, then calmed down and again manifested itself, and I decided to test myself again. In the end, they still refused ...
2nd - I asked to make a presentation on how I see product promotion offline and online, and what methods I will use if I get hired + write a press release, at least one sheet (position Internet marketing manager). Waiting for an answer.
3rd - asked to make a usability audit of the existing site and make an analysis of the draft design of the new site. This employer liked the report that I wrote, waiting for a response.
')
Actually, I have a question-guess, is there a catch in an era of crisis? Do companies collect information from specialists in a similar way, then draw conclusions and close vacancies?
This assumption arose against the background of the first employer, who disappeared every two months, since the first time he did not fulfill the task, he was discussed in words at the meeting.
It would be interesting to know your opinion.
UPD: I believe that it is worthwhile to make the main, interesting ways of communicating with the employer who gives the task .
So:
Do you think this is right?

UPD: I believe that it is worthwhile to make the main, interesting ways of communicating with the employer who gives the task .
So:
- Instead of assessing the site (product) of the employer, suggest making an assessment of the site (product) of a competitor;
- If the task requires a sufficient amount of time and effort, suggest that the employer pays for the result;
- Offer the employer to sign an agreement stating that “in case of a negative decision on hiring you, the employer undertakes NOT to USE the results of your test task”.
