Candidate-reported interview process

The interview was a brief 30-minute chat. The person interviewing me was really friendly and focused on how we could collaborate. It's clear that working at the Academy is for people who really love movies and are enthusiastic about the entertainment industry.

I applied online through their career page and after waiting 2 months, I was invited for an in-person interview. The entire team was there, which was about 5 interviewers. They took turns asking questions, and it felt a bit intimidating.

The whole thing took over a month and a half. I applied in June and got a Zoom invite in July. We had one 30-minute Zoom chat. It had a lot of those typical interview questions, you know?
