Initial application consisted of just a cover letter and resume. Received email invite to write 1-1.5-page analysis on ESPN show and the topics touched on, as well as the structure, pacing and overall composition of the show. Next was a phone screen with a number of people on the other end, maybe 3-4. Next ESPN booked me a hotel room in Bristol near their main campus for a two-day interview/tour of the facilities, was very cool. Spoke with maybe 6-7 people in an interview setting. One tested on recognition (via picture) of popular sports figures at the time.
