Interview

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at China Daily
Interview
I applied to China Daily as a copy-editor (also called "Polisher" in their role description). I was sent a copy-editing written test over e-mail and given a week to complete it and e-mail it back. This involved proofreading and editing two English language articles, and writing an additional short article.
Upon successful completion I was invited to interview (conducted via Skype as I was based overseas).
