J'ai postulé via une autre source. Le processus a pris 4 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez New York Times (New York, NY) en nov. 2007
Entretien
The interviewing is different from what the job entails, so its a huge disconnect for you as a candidate. No one in the company seems to have an idea of what's wrong with the company. It seems like they are all in a bubble, a modified reality, and somehow do not think the company is facing financial trouble. So when they talk to you, they still act like they are from outer space and expectations are set as if you will be part of a family, but when you start working there, you feel trapped. That is why several employees have left the company within a short span of time. BTW, I also think some departments within the company are racists when it comes to hiring non-white folks as when you walk in, the first thing you notice is that about 75% of workforce is white. Not to say the do not hire others (as that would be against the law), but they certainly prefer white people, esp. at managerial level.
Recruiter call was pretty straightforward. After that, I talked to hiring manager and people manager. The questions are quite simple, but they look for ppl who show NYT missions and values.
J'ai passé un entretien chez New York Times (New York, NY)
Entretien
1. Hiring Manager round - Discussion about the current projects and how would you apply that experience at NYT
2. 4 stakeholder rounds - You meet the people you are going to work and deep dive into product strategy and execution.
3. Final VP round
First I had a phone screen, and then a video call with the hiring manager. The phone screen was very informal and casual, whereas the interview with the hiring manager was more structured and had questions that were relevant to the specific team and role.
