J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez New York Times (New York, NY) en juil. 2013
Entretien
I had a phone interview with HR person at New York Times for a position of a Project Manager. The HR guy interviewing me paid very little attention to our conversation from the first second. It felt like he was busy doing something else while listening to me at the same time. We had quite a few pauses when he didn’t even realize that I've stopped answering his question. He could not elaborate too much on the position requirements and blabbered something from the script he had. There was more info online, that I got from him. That was a very disrespectful interview, but oh well. I guess that's people that New York Times hire. So I wouldn’t want to be a part of a team like this for sure. Don’t want to mention his name, but check out his Linkedin profile - he was a politician in the White House in the past. I wonder if he left his people skills there too.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Standard questions. He had no details about the position he was interviewing for.
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.

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.
