Behavioral Presentation

I had an initial interview with the hiring manager and then a second interview with another associate. Both interviewers were nice and asked good questions. While the interview itself was good, the overall candidate experience wasn't great. I followed up and got ghosted. After putting in time for two interviews, I expected at least a rejection email. Being ghosted felt rude and left a bad impression.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was quite relaxed and conversational. Make sure to come prepared with interesting questions. You'll start with a casual phone chat, then move on to two virtual interviews via Teams. It's important to be ready to discuss your experience and have specific examples ready, rather than just repeating what's on your resume.

Since it's Covid times, the interview process is pretty standard. Everything's done remotely. It starts with a phone call, then a one-on-one video interview, followed by a 3-hour video interview where you speak with multiple people back-to-back.

I had a Zoom interview with editors, and then was supposed to have a second interview with more senior editors and reporters. I didn't make it to that second interview though. The interviewers were really nice and asked some good questions.
