Short test article written based on a given prompt. Also pitching several story ideas for news articles. Training after that will consist of learning Wordpress and how to find story ideas.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Screen Rant (Houston, TX) in Jan 2022
Interview
Awfully slow. There are three phases when it comes to getting hired at Screen Rant. The first phase is the application with mandatory cover letter and that's the easiest part. The next step is a writing test, which is also rather easy. It is the final part, which is training. It took me a week after being offered to be brought on to the team, before training began. They recently changed programs and have hired too many people for the trainer to possibly handle. If training is not completed within five business days, you do not get to write for them.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There are none. It's all a process to test you and see if you can write in there style, which the trainer doesn't follow.

Interview
There was no interview, completely dependent on writing evaluation and they get back to you if the editing team approves. They are quick and efficient in their responses and take questions well.
