Had a Cares Day to give back to the community (volunteering). Could have been more activities for the interns together.

  • 8. What advice would you give to others applying to NBCUniversal
  • Time between applying for the role and actually having the interviews can take a few months so keep a watch out for email updates! Assessment centre is relaxed, a simple presentation to different managers followed by 10 min back-to-back interviews with different team managers. Just be yourself and showcase your passion for media and entertainment. Do your research on NBCU!
