I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY) in Sep 2013
Interview
I applied on their website, and it was a few weeks before I was contacted by a recruiter. During that phone call, basic questions about why I was interested was ask, and what shows I would be interested in interning on. They also asked what prior experience I had in the field of production, as well as why I think I'd be a good fit for NBC. After that, I received a second phone call. During this call certain job positions that were available were revealed to me, and I was asked which I would prefer. Then another phone call was initiated by a person from the specific department in which my choice was in. Was asked basic questions, and it seemed very promising. However I shortly received an email from the 3rd caller stating they decided to move forward with somebody else.
