The entire process was very conversational and low-key. I wasn't asked any hardball questions and the hiring manager was very friendly and nice. I did have to wait a really long time before getting a final offer
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at CNN (Atlanta, GA) in Mar 2022
Interview
Interviewer was unprepared and didn't seem interested in my responses to his questions, he continually looked away and was distracted by something possibly his phone. He made me feel like I was wasting his time.
