I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at The Journal (Martinsburg, WV) in Aug 2017
Interview
Had been looking for a journalism/copyediting job for a while, so when this popped up I went for it. Heard back from editor a day or so later asking for an interview. Met with said editor who said they really liked that I had background in writing, copyediting ,and page design, when most other applicants only seemed to only have 1-2 of those. Asked questions about working under pressure and tight deadlines, time management, page design, AP style, past journalism experience. Asked at the end of interview if I could send them samples of page design, which I did later that day, and got a call a few hours later that I was offered the job.
