First interview by HR. If you pass this stage, the editor will review your profile and invite you to an online interview. The next round will be a written assessment. Good luck
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Financial Times (London, England) in Mar 2014
Interview
Unscientific. If you have the skills it then becomes a popularity contest with a writing test. Expect some tough questions and perhaps a writing/editing test. A lot rides on whether you click with the interviewer so research the culture. Sought: Intelligent, confident, internationalist, fluent in economics, business and politics, extra language, technical skills, experience. Need to show good understanding trends and the bigger picture. Must be able to write.
