I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Wiley (Weinheim, Baden-Wurttemberg) in Sep 2011
Interview
To get an interview I had to edit a manuscript, which was a good test to see if you could spot common errors. The interview was fairly straightforward; met with several teams because there were several positions within different journals. It was an entry level position, so I would be trained on the job (previous position was a post-doc). After the interview I had to write a summary of a journal paper and a letter to an author. I was given 1 hour.
