A successful candidate can describe to the interviewer how previous experience in news or as a manager will help them work well in the new position. The candidate should describe aspects of their personality that make them a good fit for a managerial position, such as the ability to work well with a team, and good compromising skills. The candidate should also describe what past experience in news they have, and how it helps them make the best possible decisions for the news department.
