I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Numero Magazine (Paris) in Jan 2014
Interview
I received a phone call from the features editor who wanted to meet with me, after reading my resume and cover letter. We settled an appointment and met quite rapidly. She interviewed me in the editorial room, where the copy editor and deputy editor were working. We talked about my previous experiences and my interests. She described the different tasks I would need to complete on this job. Everything went really well. Afterwards, I had to meet with the editor in chief, who was very nice too. The interview was really short: she asked me what I did before and also asked if I got along with the features director, because I would be working with her directly. Everthing was settled really rapidly and ten days later I was signing my contract with them.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
None of the questions were unexpected/difficult: she asked about my interests, and about my favorite fashion designers, but also about the last exhibition I had seen.
