I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Paramount in Jan 2022
Interview
Was approached by recruiter on Linked In, then had a 15 minute screening call with a recruiter followed by 1 hr long video call interview with department head. Process took only about a week.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why are you looking for a new job?
Lots of behavioral questions around previous successes, mistakes, challenges.
Some technical questions about how I would manage a project.
Recruiter was communicative and responsive throughout the process. Everyone I spoke with felt genuine, intelligent and supportive. Given the current state of the company, they were also honest about how the streaming team fit into future plans, which I appreciated.
I applied online. I interviewed at Paramount (New York, NY)
Interview
The interview process was standard. I had 3 rounds of interviews that seemed to go well, and then I never heard from the company again. Being ghosted in a difficult job market is frustrating. It would be better to receive a generic email saying the company went with a different candidate.
The interview process took about 2 months. In that time I met with about 10 people, which is a lot! However, I enjoyed the process and really appreciated meeting so many people on the team and getting to inquire about the role. Because it was a long process it was a bit anxiety-inducing but honestly what interview process isn't?
