Interview
Then interview process started with a brief phone call to schedule a date to meet in person. The in-person interview started with HR and then moved along to Barb (she's wonderful) There, we discussed my interest in book publishing, my strengths and weaknesses and what I hoped to get out of the internship and taking a look at my portfolio. Overall was a very pleasant experience (I was hired and heard back fairly quickly)

Interview
Pretty simple and smooth process which I appreciated. Had a call with recruiter/hr coordinator then scheduled call with hiring manager the following day. standard behavioral interview questions and specific things about my resume. received the final decision about a week later.
the interview process went well, the recruiter and the hiring manager were very communicative and made sure to assure me throughout the application process. it lasted about a couple weeks - maybe 3?
