    What You'll Be Doing

    Description

    This challenge is entirely video-based. You are asked to respond on camera to scenarios you might face in this role. There's no right script to memorize; we want to see how you think through the situation in real time.

    Measure Well is an early-stage data, AI, and technology social impact venture that helps place-based organizations advance education and workforce development. Their Executive Assistant is a force multiplier for the CEO — protecting focus and time, building a reliable rhythm of business, and bringing calm and discretion to a complex stakeholder map spanning funders, an Advisory Council, and a fast-moving leadership team.

    Constraints to Consider

    • You are supporting a CEO at a small, fast-moving nonprofit-adjacent organization — you won't have a large admin team behind you, and most decisions are yours to make in the moment.
    • The organization operates in Eastern Standard Time and works with a distributed set of stakeholders (funders, an Advisory Council, leadership team, vendors).
    • You do not have unlimited access to the CEO — many judgment calls need to be made with partial information, not a quick check-in.

    Communication note: This is an executive-facing, stakeholder-facing role, so how you communicate is part of what we're assessing — clarity, warmth, and professional judgment matter here. Speak naturally and conversationally, as if you were actually talking through the situation with a colleague. We are not scoring for a particular accent or for native-English fluency — we're listening for clarity, warmth, and sound judgment.

    On-camera requirement: Please stay visible on camera for the full video. This isn't a formality — part of this role involves representing the CEO and Measure Well in video and virtual settings, so being present and comfortable on camera is part of what we're assessing. If you need a reasonable accommodation related to the video format, let us know before you submit and it won't affect your evaluation.

    Submission: Record your responses as a single video file (MP4 or MOV) and upload it directly on the Provn platform.

    What You'll Accomplish

    Demonstrate sound, real-time judgment when protecting an executive's time and calendar

    Show how you handle confidential or sensitive information with discretion

    Demonstrate ability to coordinate operational and vendor issues without hand-holding

    Show clear, professional, stakeholder-appropriate communication under realistic constraints

    How Your Work Will Be Scored

    **Executive Support & Rhythm of Business Judgment (25%):** A strong response resolves the scheduling conflict with a clear prioritization principle and anticipates a consequence beyond the immediate ask.**Discretion, Judgment & Confidentiality (20%):** A strong response identifies the real sensitivity in the request and describes a specific, sound boundary for handling it.**Communication & Stakeholder Management (20%):** A strong response is clear, warm, and immediately usable by the stakeholder in the scenario.**Operational & Vendor Coordination (15%):** A strong response proposes a fix that also prevents the problem from recurring, and names who else needs to be looped in.**AI Fluency (10%):** A strong response names a specific moment of redirecting AI output and explains what didn't meet the bar and what changed.**Resume & Background (10%):** Scored separately from your video, based on directly relevant executive-support experience and career trajectory.
