I wouldn't guess: I'd ask this question on COPYEDITOR-L. If you get the job,
you should definitely join CE_L: it's an invaluable resource. You may find
some information on writing tests in the archives of CE_L. (You should find
out, before the interview, if this is a test of your ability to use MS Word
or a test of your editing abilities - and if the latter, to what level do
they expect you to edit?)
