I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macmillan (New York, NY) in Apr 2010
Interview
They asked mostly basic questions, like why I wanted to work in publishing and what books I had read recently. I interviewed with two people at once over speakerphone which often made it very difficult to make out what they were saying.
Had a casual video call with an employee of the marketing team, answered basic interview questions, later received an assignment via email, completed it, and was ultimately rejected after submission
Very straightforward, interviewed once with a senior art director and an associate senior art director who became my direct supervisor as an intern. We talked about my design experience and skills, what I was doing in school, book and design trends and the different requirements for the job.

Question 1
What is your experience level with Adobe InDesign and Photoshop?
It was a very conversational interview with a lot of room for questions. Very open about how the internship operates, asked about how past experience might apply to the tasks.
