Other Production Assistant interview reviews for 120 Sports
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at 120 Sports (Chicago, IL) in May 2014
Interview
A relatively extensive phone interview, followed by an in-person interview with different people but many of the same questions. Both the phone and in-person interviews were conducted with two different people doing the interviewing. The questions consisted mostly of going over my experience and my ability to answer questions about current events in sporting news.

How do you consume your sports news on a daily basis?
I applied through other source. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at 120 Sports (Chicago, IL) in Apr 2014
Interview
I sent an email to an email address listed for press inquiries looking to connect with someone about potential job opportunities. Eventually I received an email from a Supervising Producer looking to set up a job interview over the phone. After interviewing with him I had another phone interview with another Supervising Producer. A few days after that the first person I spoke with called me back and offered me the job.

Question 1
They ask me about my intern experience and sports knowledge. Didn't really ask me anything too specific. A good part of the interview was spent explaining the company's design and purpose. This was April 2014 and the company didn't launch until June 2014 so little was known about them. I felt as though they spend most of the interview trying to sell me on them as opposed to the other way around.
