I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at New York Times (New York, NY) in Mar 2024
Interview
one interview with the hiring manager and then never heard back after numerous followups. Never had a POC within HR to reach out to about the process / next steps.
Recruiter call was pretty straightforward. After that, I talked to hiring manager and people manager. The questions are quite simple, but they look for ppl who show NYT missions and values.
1. Hiring Manager round - Discussion about the current projects and how would you apply that experience at NYT
2. 4 stakeholder rounds - You meet the people you are going to work and deep dive into product strategy and execution.
3. Final VP round
First I had a phone screen, and then a video call with the hiring manager. The phone screen was very informal and casual, whereas the interview with the hiring manager was more structured and had questions that were relevant to the specific team and role.
