Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 3 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en ESPN en ene 2013
Entrevista
Applied to the position online, but also had a contact through a friend with a recruiter. After some phone interviews and an aptitude test (not for the faint of heart), I traveled to Bristol for the in-person portion. Great facility and awesome crew of people. After a long time waiting and ultimately having to resubmit my paperwork, I was given an offer.

If you do your homework, you can get most of the prep for the aptitude test handled in advance. That said, if you think you "know sports" and can just knock out facts ranging from live scoring, history, current topics, problem-solving, etc. for all the major sports, tennis, golf, etc., you'll be slapped around by some cold hard reality.

One phone screening interview and one virtual interview with two of their hiring managers. Asked me mostly general interview questions, such as, "tell me about yourself", "tell me about a hard decision you had to make", etc. Only a few sport related questions.

Me postulé en línea. Acudí a una entrevista en ESPN
Entrevista
Long, arduous, and very time consuming.
Before even interviewing, applicants take an open-book assessment exam to qualify. Then, there were 10 (ten) interviews with various managers in departments and HR. After the first three or four, ESPN brings you out to the campus in Bristol. Two-days worth of interviews and shadowing followed.
Upside: Everyone was more than friendly and accommodating. Had they been disagreeable, it would have been a tougher process.

Entrevista
The interview questions were reasonable and straight forward, but the Sports Assessment test was more challenging that I had anticipated because of the time limit that the system imposes upon the interviewee. Although I thought I had a reasonable amount of sports knowledge, I learned that there is much more to follow if I want to work as a statistics analyst.
