I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ESPN (New York, NY) in June 2015
Interview
Relatively normal interview process. Met with both account executives and sales management on the team in which I would be supporting. Had to be able to describe the immediate value you'll be able to add to the team, what previous client service experience you had, your understanding of ESPN's value proposition in the multimedia landscape etc.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at ESPN (New York, NY) in Feb 2013
Interview
Met with the Director of Sales to start. Was asked back for round two to meet with the potential three person AE team that I would be working with (TV, Digital, Print). Met with the AE's as a group. After a few weeks I learned that I didn't land the job but was turned onto another few teams over the next month or two when other opportunities presented themselves.
