I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at CNN (New York, NY) in Apr 2010
Interview
It was very simple - the interviewer asked what I was most interested in, why I'd be interested in working in News, etc. Nothing out of the ordinary, really. The questions were to the point but nothing was placed in the interview that was intended to trip me up. Overall, it was a positive experience.
it was a Hirevue, they asked typical interview questions like introduce yourself, what challenges have you faced, what's your news diet, etc. took only around 15 minutes to complete but I would do significant preparation.
Very thorough and detailed. There were three rounds of interview, and one of them was online. Then it came to in person interview. I struggled with the online because you have to record yourself and answer their questions with time limits.
I was instructed to undergo a virtual interview on Hireview. I have not heard back yet, but they asked basic questions like "tell us about yourself" and "why are you interested in this internship?"
