How does a magazine interview work?

March 10, 2005 7:41 PM

I have an interview at a national magazine next Friday and was wondering if anyone has interviewed at a magazine, and if so, if you could tell me what they ask.

I'm very nervous. They already have my clips. It's in NYC. Assuage my fears, please, and I will forever be your friend.

What kind of magazine? Adding more detail to your quesiton will result in more useful answers, moooshy.

Yes, yes.. more details, please. I would assume that the questions a magazine would ask would be specific to the subject.

Or wait - are you being interviewed as a subject, or for a job?

Yah, too vague to give help. Amber will probably hit the nail on the head, but drop me an email if ya want.

I'm sorry. It's a national men's interest magazine and I'm being interviewed for an editorial internship position.
