Long process from application submission to initial call to the actual interviews. It took over three months from when I submitted to when I eventually got an offer. The HR department was not very communicative at all between sending the application and then receiving an interview. It took such a long time I had forgot I even applied and interviewed for the role.

I had a video chat with the HR representative to go over my qualifications and then another video chat with the editorial team to ask questions about my skills and working style.

How many articles could you edit on a monthly basis?
Very straightforward, a friendly process. It involved two stages, the first of which was a great experience. Both interviews felt informal and they moved me through the process very quickly.
