Interview
I was called for an interview late April for the summer session. I went to HQ in Washington DC. The interview was very laid back. The questioner gave me a tour of the building and then we watched the news for about 10 min before starting. The interview was a conversation. I felt that I had already been picked for the position and that this was just an confirmation interview. Afterwards, I met all of the Wash Desk staff, so I was pretty confident the entire time.
