I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at CNN (Atlanta, GA) in Nov 2014
Interview
I began with a Skype interview with both the Technical Operations Assistant Supervisor, as well as the News Assistant Supervisor. My experience was unique in that I was asked to choose between the two positions at the start of my interview.
The Skype interview was followed by an in-person interview with just the News Assistants Supervisor.
The process in getting this position was VERY lengthy, with a lot of time between interviews, and a lot of time to get the offer.
