I applied online. I interviewed at Oxford University Press (New York, NY)
Interview
Started with a call from HR where they asked me first off about my salary requirements. This was a long back and forth, and they eventually told me the budget they had for the position and that it was was inflexible. On a second call with HR, I answered questions while they typed my answers, which had to be pretty short. Then set up an interview with the supervisor for the job. This was a pretty standard interview, and I met with HR after where I had to reiterate certain things we had talked about. It was about a month before I finally heard back after the interview process, via email.

Shortly after submitting an application online (I included just a resume, no cover letter) I was invited to interview with someone from HR. The interview was pretty easy and conversational - I explained my background and how it related to the role as the HR representative described it to me.

Interview
Two interviews, first with the line manager and the second one with the head of the team. They ask you about your experience on project management, market awareness, and finish with something like “what’s your superpower?” Or “what animal do you identify with?” So be ready to answer something and be yourself! It’s what worked for me.
