NBCUniversal Intern Hourly interview questions

The interview process followed the typical interview scheme.. There was first call with Human Resources, then a second quick chat with the hiring manager, and then finally an in person interview. Since I was applying for my first internship they were understanding that I didn't come in with a lot of applied technical experience, but appreciated the enthusiasm and work ethic I conveyed in my interview.

Found intern posting online and forwarded resume to Manager. Was asked to come in for interview (about an hour in length) and was offered the job at the end of the interview. Was asked (as a college student) what professional backgrounds my parents came from / what the trajectory of their careers was like, and how that influenced my work ethic, etc. -- had never gotten a question like that in an interview before, and haven't again to this day. Small company so it was very important to them that I be a "self-starter" and take ownership of my work / bring new ideas to the company -- by no means did I spend this internship "getting coffee".
