I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Baltimore Sun Media Group (Baltimore, MD) in Jul 2024
Interview
I had two interviews with two newly installed executive-level editors to the newly Sinclair-owned Baltimore Sun after speaking to a recruiter about the opening as the newsroom looked to rebuild after a few rough years. There was a briefer conversation with two recruiters and two interviews with senior editors on the team. One was actively working and had to stop mid interview to handle breaking news.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me how I would handle direction from the Sun's new rich owner who is directing some of the editorial coverage projects (immigrant coverage etc.) and if I had a problem with a rich conservative inserting himself into the newscycle (they worded this differently, obviously).
