I received an email from the hiring manager, who scheduled a video call with me. The call was about thirty minutes with two editors. I was asked to also do a discovery call.

The interview process took over a month. First I had to submit a writing sample then conducted a phone interview followed by two more interviews over Microsoft Teams with two managers each. Overall the interviews weren't difficult and I had a good feeling about getting hired until the last round where in interviewed with the directors of content. The male interviewer was nice and had great energy and non-verbal cues but the woman seemed uninterested and disconnected the entire interview which was pretty unprofessional. From her energy alone I had a feeling I wasn't going to be hired so I wasn't too disappointed when I got the notice a week later. The interview process drags on way too long for a position that doesn't pay much. I was qualified for the position and I fit every quality they desired in a candidate as per their own opinion but in the end I didn't get it which felt like a bigger waste of time than it should've been. They should shorten the process and find more efficient ways to go about hiring.
