I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (Charlotte, NC) in Apr 2014
Interview
Honestly, it was more like a conversation to get to know my personality.. They didn't look beyond my resume to figure out my skills. I spoke with the president, the hiring manager, the executive producer and producer of the Foreign Desk for a good 30 minutes. Very informal, relaxed-type conversation. Keep in mind, this was for an internship. Interviews are a lot of more formal when applying for a contract/full-time position.

Asked why I like news, what my future goals are and my flexibility.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY) in Mar 2015
Interview
Interview was decent. Standard questions asked. It was somewhat of a skype set up, only you were recording and had a limited number of attempts to answer the question. Overall it was okay. Just be prepared for anything. I believe I didn't get the job because of my lack of experience within the production field.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY) in Nov 2015
Interview
The first step is a video interview. The questions are very easy (why do you want to work here, etc). You just have to get past the fact that you're talking to a camera. If you get to the next round, they'll bring you to 30 Rock to interview. They did a Hiring Event where you'd interview with different groups/potential departments for which they're considering you. I did 3, each was easy and they were all very friendly!
