I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at WTVG 13abc (Toledo, OH) in Feb 2021
Interview
I was applying for the entry-level news producer position. Part of the standard procedure is a writing test to ensure you can actually write news in a conversational tone for television. I had done several before this one, where they give you 2 hours to write and format the assigned stories the way they want you to. It was a shock when 13abc told me to devote 8 hours to look for my own stories, write them all up and submit them. It was such a broad request with no direction. I valued my time too much to go through with it just for them to possibly decline me anyway.
I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at WTVG 13abc (Toledo, OH) in May 2012
Interview
It was a typical interview process. A phone interview followed by an in person interview. After the in person interview I received an offer for employment within a week. This is a typical process for a job.
