the interview process was pretty good, even on a Sunday if need be, scenario type questions, problem solving situations , but overall 3 stages over 2 weeks , unfortunately the job itself didn't make the hype that was given in the interview

Got the interview offer about a week after sending in my CV. I had a chat with the editor and the UK editor at the time, talking about my experience and why I wanted to join the team. It was pretty chill and a really good time overall.

I had an initial chat with the Integrated Marketing manager, who was really nice and easy to talk to. I applied and heard back pretty quickly for the first interview, but then there was a long silence for a couple of months. I thought they'd passed on me, but I was pleasantly surprised when they reached out again after all that time. I'm still in the running and just waiting to find out if I'll get an offer.

Had a call with the editor and managing editor. They asked me a bunch of questions about my experience. It was a pretty good experience overall, I felt like I could answer everything they threw at me. They did hit me with some more technical stuff about AI, SEO/GEO, and so on, so definitely brush up on that before you go in.
