I met with a recruiter at a career fair, and then they sent me a link to do an online interview. The digital platform was pretty easy and simple to use. I got an offer right after finishing my digital interview, so I didn't have any in-person interviews.

Behavioral Technical

I had a phone interview first, then a two hour skype interview with 4 people who asked the same questions, and then an in-person interview at their office. But I missed the deadline for the in-person, so all my interviews were over skype or phone. The questions were pretty basic, but some personal questions caught me off guard.

Behavioral Case

Applied online and got a call the same day to set up a phone interview. They were pretty flexible about the time, which was nice. The phone interview was pretty basic, asking how I heard about the company, why I was interested in the job, and to tell them about myself. I was told I made it to the second round. I then had to arrange travel to the closest office (I paid for it myself). At the office, I had four half-hour interviews with different employees. These were all really chill and laid-back. They mainly wanted to know why I'm into SALES, any sales experience I have, and why I'd want to work at News America. It's a good idea to have a lot of questions ready. The final round is in New York with 8 top execs.
