I cannot believe some of you have found the links and not passed on the information! 
The young lad is keen enough to join, damn few these days, and many wouldn't blame them if they stayed away. The least you can do is support him by providing some answers.
I'm sure the old and bold were willing to help you when you applied.
Will Lewis is the Editor (youngest ever).
Good luck. Give it your all.
PS. Practice your speed/time/distance calculations. Handy for the individual/group problems they throw at you.

Apocryphal tale;
Candidate is asked which Sunday newspaper he takes.
"Sunday Times" he replies.
"Why is that" asks the interviewer, "is it the editorial content, the sport or the current affairs that you look for?"
"No sir," replies the candidate, "mum says it will light the fire all week!"

what a moron
which Sunday newspaper he takes
The only place you are likely to hear the question phrased like that is an interview to join the Forces. I have read the Telegraph for several years now, and not just so I can answer idiotic questions about the newspapers editorial staff by someone who, at the end of the day, probably goes home to read The Mirror or The Express. In fact probably whatever else his wife tells him to buy based on her preference for the Sunday magazine.
