I applied and heard back about 2-3 weeks later for an initial HR interview. Then, about a week after that, I had an interview with the hiring manager. It's been almost two months since that, and still no word from HR. I'm guessing it's a rejection. It's pretty wild that a company this big can't even give candidates an update. Especially annoying after talking to the hiring manager.

The interview process for this intern role involved two phone rounds. They like to ask about relevant courses you've taken and your general film knowledge. This might be tricky if you're not a film major, but you can easily adapt by checking out the American Film Institute's list of best movies.
