The interview process was quick. You have a phone call and then write a test article, which takes a few hours. You do get paid for writing the article, though.
The process was very friendly and stress-free. After a short interview, I was asked to do a three-hour paid trial. After I finished, my piece was critiqued and I went on to be hired as a freelancer.
