I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Condé Nast (London, England) in Jun 2017
Interview
I was told to come into an interview one morning that week and to prepare by making sure I've read all the morning papers and come up with some ideas. I was interviewed by two editors who were friendly by obviously unimpressed. I was asked to pitch my ideas, but they wanted more than what I had prepared. It was intense and didn't go well. I was never given a call back and not even an email. I emailed to follow up and this was ignored.
