I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at CNN in Mar 2018
Interview
Pretty simple process. Sent in an online application through their portal, then was contacted about 1-2 months later by an editor looking to schedule a phone interview. Had a phone interview with him, then received a timed writing assessment. After that, I was promptly offered the position.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview was pretty informal and more like a conversation. He mostly asked me about my experiences and interests to gauge whether I might be a good fit for the job.
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?"
