I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Patch (New York, NY) in Oct 2014
Interview
I was contacted after sending in my resume in response to an advertisement, and I was granted an interview with some of the most senior people at the company. The process was very efficient but I had to go in a few times for various interviews because there were questions about my qualifications for the position. The office and staff was small for an outlet with readers across the country. It seemed that I was ultimately not offered a position because there was internal confusion about whether the company would benefit from more interns.
