I applied online. I interviewed at National Geographic Society (New York, NY) in Jun 2012
Interview
It was very quick. I meet with at least 4 to 5 different people and departments. the application online was quick and easy. HR was very friendly and explained the position very well. Once I received the job it was very different than what was described. The overall experience was very pleasant
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at National Geographic Society (Washington, DC) in Mar 2016
Interview
Surprisingly unprofessional for an institution like the National Geographic Society. I had a very casual 20 minute phone conversation with a manager. I was one of three finalists and was told I should hear either way in 1-2 weeks, but never heard from them again and my inquiries went unanswered.
I assume they had a more qualified candidate, but a simple email note informing me and thanking me for applying would have left me with a better impression.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at National Geographic Society
Interview
We talked about the job description, my previous experience and I was shown around the office where I met everyone. It was very casual and everyone was friendly. The entire process was around 45 minutes.
