I applied online. I interviewed at Lake City Reporter (Lake City, FL) in Sept 2020
Interview
Face to face interview with editor and publisher. That was the first time. I was offered a low salary so declined the job. A couple of years later I applied again when the ad showed a higher salary. The editor didn't seem to know what he wanted (it was a different one). This paper is going nowhere. No goals, no purpose, just uninspired people going through the motions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Lake City Reporter (Lake City, FL) in Oct 2017
Interview
Spent a total of five hours interviewing over a period of two days. The editor I interviewed was very open about the community, the expectations of the reporters but not much about what beat would be assigned.
