Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked about my past projects at another studio.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at NBCUniversal in May 2026
Interview
There was no interview process. The recruiter reached out for an interview, we set a time and date, they didn't show up, and they didn't respond to corresspondence after. They completely ghosted me, and provided no feedback.
I applied online. I interviewed at NBCUniversal in Jan 2026
Interview
Applied for the role on their website and received an email from the HR Recruiter a few weeks later.
Her email professionalism was not the most professional. She didn't specify a date (though using context clues and logic, I assumed correctly). On the day of the interview, she was roughly 10 minutes late. And the call lasted about 9 minutes.
She gave a brief overview of the role but nothing I couldn't have gotten from the job description. When it came for my turn to ask questions, I asked her about the team that this role would be reporting into. She gave a vague description of the team but nothing specific. Due to this, I told her I'd save the more technical questions for the team if I moved up.
Though I don't expect HR recruiters to be bubbly or friendly, I do expect some cordialness. She was not that cordial and made me feel as though she was not fully invested into doing this interview.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (Universal City, CA) in Jun 2024
Interview
Phone interview, Virtual interview with SVP (hiring manager was just hired and not available to interview until later on in the process), onsite interviews (30 minutes each), then a delay for a couple of weeks, then interview with the hiring manager then the rejection phone call a couple of weeks later.
