I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at CNN (New York, NY) in Aug 2011
Interview
The interview process was not much of an interview at all. I received a call from human resources, and was asked if I would be willing to work for a specific department. I was then asked my availability. I did not meet anyone from the department until my first day at work. The decision seems to have been made solely by resume.
it was a Hirevue, they asked typical interview questions like introduce yourself, what challenges have you faced, what's your news diet, etc. took only around 15 minutes to complete but I would do significant preparation.
Very thorough and detailed. There were three rounds of interview, and one of them was online. Then it came to in person interview. I struggled with the online because you have to record yourself and answer their questions with time limits.
I was instructed to undergo a virtual interview on Hireview. I have not heard back yet, but they asked basic questions like "tell us about yourself" and "why are you interested in this internship?"
