I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Paramount (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2016
Interview
I responded to a posting on LinkedIn. I received an email from the Director of Talent Acquisition and we set up a thirty minute call. The interviewer was very nice and very good. She asked thoughtful questions and also gave a very good overview into the role and the company.

Question 1
What are your thoughts on digital video?
What is an example of an integrated marketing campaign I worked on.
Cold, distant interviewing method. Very black and white, also seemed like the interviewer was plugging me for proprietary information about my current company (a competitor). I didn't walk away feeling convinced they wanted to know much more about me than my past 6 months of work.
