      Writer Interview

      12 July 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Saint Petersburg, FL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 12+ months. I interviewed at Tampa Bay Times (Saint Petersburg, FL) in Apr 2015

      Interview

      Journalism worlds longest delay. The interview was a warm-up email setting up more time and an in-person in the future. Then -- nothing! I emailed a few more times, and nothing. Then, a year later -- one full year and some change! -- the assistant editor got back to me. We are shrinking, not growing, the staff, he said. OK, that is somewhat admirable, I guess. I think they knew after 30 days they wouldn't hire me, so why not send the email then? Bottom line: some bad luck and management have sent the once-mighty paper (one of the nation's best) into turmoil, and there have been massive cuts. Be wary of interviewing here, because of pay cuts, and also because they could ghost you, wasting your time and energies.
