I applied online. The process took 7 months. I interviewed at Verizon in Jan 2008
Interview
It can be difficult to get hired into this company. There is a test required and you must pass for the job family in which you are applying. This test stays on your employment record for your entire career, if you try to get a promotion, you will not be considered unless you retake and pass that job family. It is a long process to get in. Stressful work environment.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For management positions,the interview process depends on the interviewer. For union personnel, their is no face to face interview, thus the reason for the extensive battery of tests required to get the position and the lengthy probation period. 30-40% of people tested, fail.
