Interview
Apply by email. Was brought in for an interview, and Ive seen this tactic used here many times, they sat me by the producers for a half hour to see how we'd interact. The chief photographer then took me on a tour. She then brought me to her office where we had a brief question and answer. What would you bring to this company? Whats the first thing you do during breaking news? Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Took about a month for a call back.
