      News Editor Interview

      18 May 2016
      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Huffington Post (New York, NY) in Jan 2014

      Interview

      There was a brief phone call with one of the senior editors. Media diet was discussed; current trending topics; professional goals; how to write a good headline; etc. Then an editorial test to write two articles within an hour while making sure it was accurate and abiding primary sourcing. This was followed by a technical interview in the newsroom where you had to identify ~50 prominent figures to test your political and cultural knowledge. This was also in addition to a cultural interview to see if you were fit for HuffPost. Then a final interview with Arianna Huffington herself.
