I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY) in Jan 2015
Interview
I had one interviewer and he was asking me questions about myself and also why I wanted to work here. Very chill interview and was not too stressed. Prepare to have a natural conversation
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work here? Tell me about yourself
I applied online. The process took 7 months. I interviewed at NBCUniversal in Oct 2015
Interview
I applied in mid-May 2015 (application was for internship in general, not a specific department within the internship). I didn't hear anything again until October, when I got an email saying I needed to complete a taped interview of myself answering timed questions that were provided, all through a specific software. The questions weren't too hard and I had a few times I could do the recording before having to submit (all five questions had to be done in one attempt, not separately). Received a call in early January with the news I got the internship.
Difficult- the written application went fine, but the video interview (where you are just speaking to a camera) was stressful and uncomfortable. They all you to redo the interview once, but the questions change--I would recommend going with your gut. If the first round went alright, leave it be.
