I had a phone screen and a video interview, but never heard back. I reached out to the recruiter and the person I interviewed with 4 times and never got a response on how the process was going or where I stood. Disappointing

I submitted my application, resume, and cover letter. Someone got in touch for a phone interview. It was a nice chat with some easy questions. Just make sure you know about the shows they're making and what kinds of things they cover.

Had a phone chat with a producer that lasted about half an hour. They asked general stuff about me, my resume, and experience. Also asked about my news sources. Pretty standard questions, nothing out of the ordinary.
