1. applied through Mattel's career site

I applied through university. I interviewed at Mattel (El Segundo, CA) in Jan 2025
Interview
Two 30 minute rounds of interviews that were pretty chill. The interviewers were nice and friendly, and I got to know about the decision about one to two weeks from when I had given the interview
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Behavioural questions about collaboration, leading an initiative, when I had to dive deep into data. Marketing questions about how I would market a particular product, how I would sell it to a retailer, and how I would enter a new market
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Mattel (East Aurora, NY) in Jan 2011
Interview
I was contacted 4 weeks after I applied online and given an interview date a month and half after my phone conversation. Once I had my interview - which was with an HR representative and 4 managers, I was offered the position 4 days later. All for an intern position!
