I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2014
Interview
Very basic and easy. One call with HR and then an onsite interview with about 3. The process was a bit lengthy unfortunately and took a lot of following up but all in all a pretty easy experience as far as interviews go
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal in Sep 2025
Interview
Recruiter call + 3 more rounds afterwards with all of them virtual except for the last one.
The process was smooth but could’ve been a bit more organized and the internal recruiter could’ve provided more clarity through the entire process but all in all not bad since a lot of those details I couldve asked as well.

Question 1
Why NBCU, how would my previous work experience contribute to the role im applying for, what do i need in a leader/manager to feel successful
Fairly drawn out and long. I think I spoke with 11 people by the end of the interview process. Interview process was about 3 months. All video calls. The job I was interviewing for is hybrid.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at NBCUniversal in Jun 2022
Interview
Probably the worst experience I've had interviewing. Took over 2 months and still haven't gotten an update. Classic ghosting.
-HR Screening
-Hiring Manager
-1 call with Director
-1 call with VP
-1 call with Manager
-HR said it'll take about a week to coordinate all calendars (assuming a presentation). I followed up 5-6 days later, HR said I'll be speaking with another VP 1:1. Haven't gotten another update since.
All calls were positive and HR repeatedly had positive feedback yet no next steps.
