I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paramount in Jan 2010
Interview
Toured the building, met the hiring manager for a one-on-one interview. Met the team for another one-on-one to talk about the specifics of the job. And then met the station manager. A lot of probing questions on experience, news judgment, the state of the industry. Very positive experience overall, very good culture.

Question 1
The interview was pretty typical; what was so surprising was no one ever explained to me what the job was or what my duties would be. The recruiter had no idea, and I never saw a job description because I was recruited. Even during the interviews, no one could explain what I'd be doing exactly.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paramount (New York, NY) in Oct 2020
Interview
I had a reference for the job, and I received a call from a hiring manager. I then had a call with my manager, and two other executives, and a follow up with the hiring manager.
Phone & 2x in person. More talking interests than the position, left with more questions than answers about the work, the position, and what they wanted from a producer in this role. Learned in interview it was a contract position, not Full Time as was listed in the job description.
