I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at CNN (London, England) in Jul 2019
Interview
Applied for the internship via their website, received a call inviting me to interview around 1 month later. Interview took place in person with 2 individuals, general questions about why I applied, what stories do I think need to be told and why.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What’s a news story that currently interests you? What journalism experience do you have?
it was a Hirevue, they asked typical interview questions like introduce yourself, what challenges have you faced, what's your news diet, etc. took only around 15 minutes to complete but I would do significant preparation.
Very thorough and detailed. There were three rounds of interview, and one of them was online. Then it came to in person interview. I struggled with the online because you have to record yourself and answer their questions with time limits.
I was instructed to undergo a virtual interview on Hireview. I have not heard back yet, but they asked basic questions like "tell us about yourself" and "why are you interested in this internship?"
