phone interview, they made a lot of promises about things that would be additional to my base pay. few of those promises came to be. they interviewed me by phone and did not pay for my move to a new state. they also did not allow me to tour the station before hire.
I applied online and didn't hear back for a month - they scheduled a interview for the next day and it was about 20 minutes. Met with two people, a promotions boss at first and then a program director for one of the stations came in. The interviewer did most of the talking explaining everything about the job and what it would include and the various things that would be required. They were very specific on everything that would happen if hired.

Question 1
After every bit of info about the job they would ask "is this something you could do?" or "is this something that interests you?" Other questions include "why do you want to work in promotions?" and various questions about the radio stations and experience - anything to try to figure out your personality.
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wilks (Kansas City, MO) in Mar 2013
Interview
I went to a career fair at my college during my last semester of my undergraduate degree. I am an Accounting major and hadn't even considered doing an internship with the radio stations. I stopped to talk to the radio DJ's and left my resume. I was e-mailed soon after for an interview. I then called to set up the interview date and time. At the interview, we toured the offices and was introduced to the appropriate manager we would be working with. At the beginning of the next week, I was offered the internship, which I accepted.

Question 1
Most difficult question is not really the right phrase... this was not a typical interview. It was very laid back and I was only asked a few questions. The one I think was the most memorable was, "What are you looking for right now?"
