      I interviewed at Oxford University Press

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Oxford University Press

      Interview

      Shortly after submitting an application online (I included just a resume, no cover letter) I was invited to interview with someone from HR. The interview was pretty easy and conversational - I explained my background and how it related to the role as the HR representative described it to me.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      How do you stay organized and manage your time effectively to stay on top of multiple projects and deadlines?
      Answer question

      Interview

      The interview lasted for around 30 minutes. Two interviewers. It was conducted in English. Questions asked were typical, like 'What do you know about OUP?', 'What are your strengths?'. There was also a written test. It was not challenging.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Oxford University Press in Dec 2021

      Interview

      Two interviews, first with the line manager and the second one with the head of the team. They ask you about your experience on project management, market awareness, and finish with something like “what’s your superpower?” Or “what animal do you identify with?” So be ready to answer something and be yourself! It’s what worked for me.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What’s your experience with author management? How do you deal with deadlines? What can you tell me about the publishing landscape in this particular area?
