Interviewed Mar 2012 in New York, NY (took 1 week)
I applied Jan. 9th and got an email literally two days after they announced that they started the interview process. It was a VERY fast process may I add! A day later I was interviewed via phone. The HR woman said she would transfer me to the Nickelodeon production department for the in-person interview. Two days later I went to New York and had the interview with my soon to be supervisor. The next day I got the call that I was chosen for the summer internship. It was pretty exciting! Can't wait to start!

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Burbank, CA (took 4+ weeks)
I've been interviewed by Nick twice. Both times, I was called for a phone interview. First time I interviewed with another intern, second time I interviewed with the Internship Coordinator. I got an email saying my resume had been passed on for further review. They then passed me onto the second interview and assigned me a show. I did a conference call the first time because I was out-of-state, but the second time I was in Burbank so I came in-person. Both times there were four or more people that actually worked on the show asking me about my interests and detailing what duties I would have as an intern. I ultimately did not get the position, but they called me back in a timely manner to let me know that they had moved on with another candidate, and encouraged me to apply again in the future.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Burbank, CA (took a day)
I had applied to Nickelodeon in January 2010, and received a phone call from an internship recruiter in April. He was extremely friendly and made me feel very comfortable answering his questions during the phone interview. I was so nervous during the interview that I messed up a lot, and feared that I wouldn't be offered the internship. However, a few weeks later, I received another call offering me the internship! I was very excited and found the opportunity to be worthwhile despite it being an unpaid internship that provided no relocation assistance.

Interviewed Apr 2011 in Burbank, CA (took a day)
The phone interview was very brief, and seemed kind of rushed. That's understandable seeing as how many applicants there are, I just wish I had a little more time to get into the groove and really convey who I was over the phone.

Interviewed May 2008 in New York, NY (took 2 weeks)
Applied via MTV networks online site. Initial call and interview was from recruiter. Standard interview questions (best & worse traits, what did you like about previous job, etc). Promised a call back within one week and got a call exactly 1 week later saying EVP would like to interview. Set up interview 2 days later. Interview with EVP was one on one with more tailored questions about the job skills and duties. Received a call one week later with job offer contingent on a background check. Laid back environment but professional dress was appreciated.
