I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY) in Aug 2018
Interview
David Carona messaged me on Linkedin about an Executive Assitant position to the Chairman of their Advertising Sales business unit. He was super friendly and honestly sold me on the role even though I wasn't looking. I work in the HR department at my current role and I was very impressed by his talent acquisition skills. After having a great call with David, I had an in-person interview with Dina Jahani & Jay Turton. They were also great and told me in depth about the role and ensured I had all the information I would need with no surprises if I was going to be offered the role. I also have to call out that Dina Jahani was one of the best interviewers I ever had. She asked challenging questions but also made you feel very comfortable in the interview. She also gave me feedback which was something I never received before after an interview. She will obviously move very far in Human Resources because she's very passionate about the field & NBC. Thank you for a great candidate experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
It was a lot of questions about working in a fast paced environment, organization skills, handling stress, & calendar management.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY) in Mar 2026
Interview
Made it to the final round consisting of 2 30minute in person interviews (1 10minute phone call, 2 zoom 30 min interviews). Waited over 2 months to hear back if I got the job or not. Ended up getting denied. Asked for feedback. Waited another month. Got told "The team is simply looking for someone with more years of experience supporting executives."
Poor communication and transparency during the process. And a waste of time to deny me for something that can be seen on my resume.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (Los Angeles, CA) in Apr 2024
Interview
Very easy interview process. The phone call was fairly straight forward and didn't ask me anything I wasn't prepared for. Lasted about thirty minutes and consisted of all basic questions about my work experience and interest level in the position.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY)
Interview
An long-haul interview process that takes about 2 months overall. I had one phone interview, 2 zoom interviews, and 1 in-person interview. Their HR team is very friendly and professional, but this definitely is not a quick process. Expect to speak to multiple team members and executives.
