It was a really bad experience. I made it all the way to the final stage, and they said they'd let me know by the end of next week. Then, nothing, I got ghosted. The whole interview process felt incompetent and dehumanizing. I wouldn't recommend it.

I sent in a general application online to MSNBC, and it went to different departments. A few weeks later, I got an email to set up a phone interview. I spoke with a segment producer from an MSNBC show. She asked me simple questions about my background, what I liked, and when I could work. It was a nice, relaxed chat, but you really have to make an effort to show your personality and social skills over the phone. Be sure to know a bit about MSNBC shows and be able to make smart comments about them.

After I sent in my application, I got a virtual interview two weeks later. Then, I had a Teams interview, and after a few more weeks, a phone call where they gave me an offer. It all took about 2 months from start to finish.
