I was kept waiting for months with the explanation that they needed more time. Then, they ghosted me. It was very unprofessional for a newspaper that appears so professional. I believe candidates deserve at least an automated message. I checked my inbox many times a day for months, as this was my dream job.

I saw the job posted in the paper. The hiring manager was in the process of building out her team and she had the authority to make the hire, so the interview process was pretty straightforward. I had a meeting with the VP of Marketing and then another meeting with three other analysts. I think the meeting with the analysts was mainly to see if they liked me and if I would be a good fit for the team.

I applied online and after a few months, the editor in chief emailed me to schedule an interview at her office. She also sent a writing, translation, and editing test to complete before our meeting. The interview itself was good. She began by asking about my experience, skills, preferences, and salary expectations. Then, she explained the job duties. I didn't get an offer, and I suspect my background might have intimidated her.

Being in a room with two upper management members was intimidating; I felt like I was being grilled. But overall, it felt quite easy once I got past the initial uneasiness.
