I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CNN (New York, NY) in May 2013
Interview
five calls and meetings, some long calls and short meetings with senior staff. The background check and offer took two weeks in all. Some time between calls and offer. Nice experience
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at CNN (Atlanta, GA) in Jun 2012
Interview
Inefficient, far too long, and involving too many people. It took two days, and multiple people conducted interviews, even though it didn't appear most of them had much, if any, input in the actual hiring.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at CNN (New York, NY) in Jul 2015
Interview
The interview usually last anywhere from 30-60 minutes. They will go through your past experiences and ask you to elaborate. They ask pretty much basic questions. The interviewing process as a whole from the first time that you speak to them rather long. Sometimes you will have to check how the process is going several times before a decision is made.
