Insights into NBCUniversal SWE interview
I had an interview with the hiring manager for the DTC team a while ago that went well, and they want to move me on to the next round. The recruiter said it will be 3 separate 30 minute interviews with the team. Just wondering if any current or former NBCU employees have any insight on what the structure of the calls will be like and what topics I should review to best prepare myself. Been laid off since last December + the opportunity to work on a streaming platform that is consumer facing means I really want to put my best foot forward and ace the interviews. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated! TC: 0 (prev 130k) YOE: 2 #nbcuniversal #nbcuniversalinterview
Nbcu as a whole has no defined tech stack. On the broadcast side of things, the devops teams mostly do everything in Python / ansible. Maybe a little bit more swe oriented on the ott teams like peacock will have more defined structure. From my interviews a couple of years ago, for a non swe role they were leaning heavy to video and streaming knowledge with specific vendor workflows knowledge. And questions about creating system design for internal tools to interface with vendor APIs either in json or yaml. General to intermediate knowledge of Linux, general cloud info aws, and intermediate knowledge knowledge of video over ip networking. Everything is team specific, like the previous comment stated. Feel free to reach out if you find anything useful.
Thanks for all the info KFTze, I will definitely reach out with more questions as they come up. Appreciate the offer
NBC hiring is very team specific. No standard process. Hope someone from DTC can shed light.
Thanks for the info soojaa!
