Interview
I had the option of coming in for a 1 on 1 interview but was out of state. Therefore I interviewed over the phone. I was asked general interview questions about experience, what I would bring to the office, etc. I was given a "current events" pop-quiz. I was also asked what my ideal newsroom would look like.
