I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Horizon Media (New York, NY) in Apr 2016
Interview
I first had a brief phone interview - spoke with someone in HR about my past experiences and the job position. About two weeks later, they asked me to come into the office to meet with a few people on the National TV team I would potentially work with. That day, I first took a 10-question quiz (taking percentages of money sums and media) and then met with two people individually for about 15 minutes each. About 3 days later, HR contacted me about discussing next steps (request for references) and 4 days after that, I was offered the position. Overall positive experience with friendly and great people!
