Anne Slowey Explains Assistant Editor Position

at .

Considering the fact that Stylista contestants are competing to land a job at an editorial assistant at ELLE, it's natural to wonder: what does that entail?

Anne Slowey answered that question in a recent interview with The Los Angeles Times:

What do assistants - or "junior editors" - at Elle do?
Well! This will be interesting to figure out when it comes time for the person to begin the job! People keep saying they're working for me -- I haven't been told they are. . . . So they'll probably do a rotation -- like a first-year med student!

Usually that position makes like $20,000 a year or something, right?
I think it's more than that! I should know. I think my assistant makes closer to $30,000. I feel like when we started it was $18,000, $20,000.
