      Senior Production Editor Interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Penguin Group

      Interview

      I'm at the point in my career where my experience and reputation should speak for my skills and it's borderline insulting to be asked to take a copyediting/proofreading test. But they required one for this position, so I took it and apparently passed because I moved on to the interview. The copyediting one was fine, but the proofreading one was ridiculous. I don't understand why they manipulate the chapter to have so many errors, an amount that no set of proof will ever have. I don't think it's fair to ask potential employees to spend unpaid time on these manipulated tests.
