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.

Extremely simple! Make sure you know the company very well. Know your news and make sure you watch at least the two recent segments. They will definitely test your knowledge on how well you know the show.

Question 1
Why do you think you would be a great person for this internship?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (Los Angeles, CA) in Jul 2016
Interview
The phone interview was easy and relaxing. The recruiter was friendly and fairly new to the company so she thought for a while when I asked her questions about NBC Universal. However, the recruiter never replied to emails after the phone screening. I never received a rejection email either; I had to go online to see my application status to know that I have been rejected for this position.
