I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Australian Broadcasting (Sydney) in Mar 2013
Interview
Written applications must address specific criteria and these are also covered in the interview. Some 'hypotheticals' are involved and you need to listen for cues about how to answer. If you have an analysis of how you might be weaker compared to other likely front-runners, it's good to prepare on that front. Be prepared to sell your self on al points because sometimes the questioning might be a bit slack.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked a hypothetical about defamation law which also reflected on editorial policy. It was designed to get you to discern between what is legal and what is acceptable according to editorial standards.
