Interview
Awkward. The woman on the phone did not engage in any of things I said – it was very interview-y without really any conversation, so overall I felt as if I couldn't be myself. I felt anyway that the interview went decent, as I was given the opportunity to write sample pieces for them to test my writing skills. After sending these in, I never heard back from the company even after a follow up email.

Interview
I applied online while away at college and set up an interview for when I was home for the summer. I originally interviewed for that summer but didn't get hired until the following summer after I had graduated college because I didn't have enough months to donate to the internship.
