I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY) in Nov 2015
Interview
I received an online, recorded interview and went in for a face-to-face interview. The online interview had three questions, each timed out to be a minute and a half. The face-to-face interview was 20 minutes. The recorded interview is weird in the way that you are talking to yourself and when you try to make a joke, no one laughs back... except maybe yourself. The face-to-face interview was very pleasant. The interviewer was around 25 years old and very kind.
