Hearst interview questions

Applying online was easy, and the response was directly from the senior editor, with a warm exchange in general. A key takeaway from the interview was the feeling of immense burnout among the editors interviewing me, It did not seem like they wanted to be there nor did they seem enthused by their own work, much less the role they are trying to fill. Basic questioning and easy interview.

3 rounds of interviews. First was a call with HR asking about why this role, availability, salary expectations. Second was meeting person doing role and a key stakeholder. A presentation task/ client brief was assigned, so third round was presenting the task.
