      Intern - Hourly Interview

      7 Feb 2016
      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Penguin Random House (New York, NY) in Jan 2014

      Interview

      I got the internship through reaching out to connections I had at the company. I first interviewed briefly with my connection in the editorial department, who then passed me along to the overall intern coordinator. She was very polite, but not particularly thorough or interested in ensuring I had a stimulating experience. They didn't reach out to me for several weeks, and when they did I was to start a day or two later.
