      Associate Editor Interview

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Bustle in Aug 2019

      Interview

      I got an email asking to set up a phone interview and also take an edit test. I responded immediately with my availability for the interview but never heard back. I took an extremely long edit test in the meantime. I never heard back about the interview or my edit test after following up three times. I should have read the other reviews as they all described a similar experience.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Bustle

      Interview

      The first step of the interview was and edit test that took several hours to complete. I found it very odd that they required me to complete a very in-depth edit test before even doing an initial screening / 15 minute phone call with HR.
