      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at New York Times (New York, NY) in Jun 2010

      Interview

      Well the recruiter will give you a call and have a phone interview. Then you'll come in and interview with the recruiter. From there if the managers you'd be working under are available, you'd interview with them. Unfortunately none were available after my interview with the recruiter, so I had to come back maybe two days later to interview with the managers and director of my department. I interviewed with three managers and the director, all separately. It was a back to back sort of situation. A little intimidating, but only three out of the four were difficult to get a good vibe from. After the interviews, I made sure to send thank you emails as the recruiter was helpful in pointing out how highly the managers and director view them. It took about a week to hear from the recruiter and I was offered a position.

      Meet with all kinds of people from different parts of the department. Know who you are, why you do what you do, what value you have to them. Brush up on the product, people at the Times love the Times, use that to your advantage.
