      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Frontiers (London, England) in Oct 2021

      Interview

      First round was with HR who asked about my background and why I wanted to work at Frontiers. Second interview was with two Journal Launch managers who asked competency, behavioural and scenario based questions back to back. They also get you to do a roleplaying task which I found to be quite intimidating. I did my preparation but still found it quite intense despite using the STAR method and demonstrating my knowledge and skills of academic publishing.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why do you want to work for Frontiers? What is a Journal hybrid? What are the criticisms of Open Access publishing? What frustrates you? What motivates you?

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Frontiers in Nov 2022

      Interview

      The process was well explained, and the people interviewing me were very friendly and helpful. They explained a lot about the company and what is kind of expected. Had a short interview with HR person then invited back to be interviewed by 2 people who work directly with the journals and creating them. The process was very slow, I applied first mid November and was offered the job at the start of February. But I was told they would take while due to winter break, so can't fault them on that.
