I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (Miami, FL) in Jun 2023
Interview
Received a phone call from the recruiter after 1 or 2 days of applying to schedule a Teams mini interview for about 15-30 minutes. That went well, so she scheduled me an interview with the hiring manager a little less than a week later. The interview was friendly, average kind of interview questions that I was mostly prepared for. I was told from the hiring manager that I would receive a decision on moving to the next round within a week, but it took a little over 2 weeks. After I received the automated rejection email, I followed up with the hiring manager to thank her for her time, and also to ask about feedback from our interview. In typical manager fashion when they aren't interested, they ghost you. I will say that the HR recruiter was very responsive during the process though.

Biggest strength and weakness
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at NBCUniversal (New York, NY) in Aug 2025
Interview
Interviewer asked general questions about revenue recognition principles, and my understanding of GAAP. It was a lax interview. Was also asked about balancing communication with various stakeholders and how communicating financial information changes based on the audience. Ultimately didn’t get the role.
