I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Paramount (New York, NY) in Nov 2022
Interview
Applied in late Early September for following Spring semester. Got a request for interview in November. 15 minute zoom interview a week later. Got selected the next week for the program. Only one round of interviews, which is often unheard of considering the size of the applicant pool. To this day don't understand how they were able to select me out of a singular 15 minute interview, but hey, I loved the gig and I'm not complaining. This may have been program specific, and may not apply to all Paramount internships.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about yourself? Do you like the show? What is a segment on the show you enjoyed? What is your philosophy on working in teams? Strengths and weaknesses?
It was a very simple process. I applied in January and they reached out I believe at the end of February. I had a recruiter phone screening, then immediately had a 30-minute chat with my Manager. Overall it took about a month or so.
I applied for the program. After applying I received an interview update. I was interviewed with general questions before being taken to interview with the hiring manager. It was a pleasant experience
The interview process was very smooth and each of the interviewers I spoke to were friendly and encouraging. I had a great experience and would highly recommend applying for Paramount's internships.
