I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Egypt Today Magazine (Cairo, Cairo Governorate) in Jun 2011
Interview
Business Today and Egypt Today magazines accept applications for proofreaders on a rolling basis so just send a quick email (no cv necessary) saying you're interested in joining their staff of proofreaders and if they're in the market they'll likely get back to you within a week at least. All they care about is how you perform on their proofreading exam, so really no previous experience or cv necessary.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
No interview, just a proofreading test with plenty of formatting errors, proper noun inconsistencies, misspellings, grammatical errors, and a rocky style.
