Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend NBCUniversal to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to NBCUniversal
The advice I would give is to show your interest in the industry in the application process. Do plenty of research about the company and what they do and then find some things that you are very interested in such as a film and really show your interest for that. Most employers are looking for someone who fits the team very well and will be a friendly face around the office and also knows there role very well before they begin the placement.
