I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (Universal City, CA) in Apr 2015
Interview
My interview process was very lengthy primarily because I was out of state. First I applied online in April 2015. About 3 weeks later I got a call from the NBCU recruiter to discuss the opportunity and my availability to relocate. A few weeks later we scheduled an phone interview that was very technical in nature which I passed. After that I didn't here anything for a few months except an occasional email from the recruiter stating that I was still in the running for the job. Then in July 2015 I was setup with a skype interview with the team an that went well. Finally in August 2015 I was presented with an offer and after a little bit of negotiating I accepted and began plans to relocate to Universal City, CA.

Question 1
What is the difference between Asynchronous and synchronous communications
Did a short phone interview with a recruiter. We talked about the technology stack used at the company and position details, They asked general screening questions like tech experience, salary range, location, etc.
Interview process was quite short for a software engineering interview. Interview process was a pre screen, system design, verbal technical, and a behavioral interview. System design interview was the most difficult.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (Austin, TX)
Interview
Pretty straightforward, and seems like a nice place to work. The offer did not go through since they decided to go with a contractor they had previously hired. 1st conversation with recruiter, then hiring manager, then technical lead.
