So first I had a screening call with HR. Then I had a zoom interview with two people from different departments. After that, my third interview was an hour long and in person with my potential supervisor. And during the in-person interview, I also met with the managing director and the head of HR.

I applied online and then two weeks later, I got a call back for the first round interview over zoom. I interviewed with the person I would be reporting to that summer. The first round was pretty chill, just talking about my resume and recent experiences and why I wanted this seasonal gig. Two weeks after that, I got contacted to set up a second interview, which was in-person at the offices near the bowl, and scheduled for about a week and a half later. The person who did my first round interview said the second round would just be a casual chat with the team, but when I got there, it was actually a formal interview with all four team members. Even though 3 of them hadn't even looked at my resume beforehand. They told me I'd hear back in about a week, but I never got any response from them.

It was very straight forward. They asked for how I deal with difficult people and my experiences with challenging moments in my previous jobs. They also make sure that you have reliable transportation and availability, which I didn't at that time.

So I had a first interview, it was more like a screening with basic questions, pretty straightforward. Then, I interviewed with the editorial director. She really dove into the specifics of the job requirements. It was important to her that I understood it wasn't a writing role, and she really stressed the organizational aspect.
