Question 1
Tell me about yourself and why you want to work at Viacom.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Paramount (New York, NY) in Dec 2017
Interview
The interview consisted of a 30 minute phone screen interview that took place in the afternoon. The phone interview was very clearly geared towards finding a candidate that very specifically met the requirements as identified and defined in the job description. I felt that the process was fair, but then again, the interviewer could have been more receptive to hearing about applicability of expereince that was not 100% aligned with the role on paper, but in practice would have been.
