I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at China Daily (Beijing, Beijing)
Interview
It would be a long laborious interview that lasts for 30 minutes. Expect a tough interview, if you are not recommended by anyone. Like in any other media organization, here also having a godfather or godmother matters!
