I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Hearst (New York, NY) in Mar 2015
Interview
The interview process was fairly laid back, but I would definitely consider it to be a fair assessment of my abilities. I love that they are really thorough finding the right person, and I respected them more for that fact. They also talked about the office environment and assessed my personality to make sure I would be the most effective candidate personality-wise.

Question 1
If multiple editors asked you to help them complete each of their big projects by the end of the day, but you knew it would be an overload, what would you do?

Interview
This process consists of a 15-minute call with a recruiter, an interview with the hiring manager, an edit test, and a request for references (in that order). Some EAs will do two interviews instead only one.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Hearst (Londres, Inglaterra) in Apr 2023
Interview
An introductory call with HR, simple writing test and a Zoom interview with editors which lasted about an hour. Everyone was very nice, particularly the HR rep who called to let me know I hadn't got the job.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Hearst (New York, NY) in Apr 2022
Interview
I applied online and was quickly contacted by a recruiter. I interviewed on zoom within a week. Interviewer was nice, questions weren’t very difficult. I have already been working a job similar to the one I was interviewing for so no questions were unexpected. I thought the interview went well, they told me they didn’t have a time frame for hiring, but to reach out if I was seriously talking to another company. Within an hour I sent thank you emails. I never received another response until I was told the position was filled.
