I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at National Geographic Society (Washington, DC) in Sept 2014
Interview
It was brief. They want to know you are a hard worker and are willing to do things outside of the typical job description. Past experience in the field is considered but not crucial.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How are you with a fast paced environment where you will have multiple things that need to be completed simultaneously?
