I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Verizon (Playa del Rey, CA) in Nov 2016
Interview
Technical round was not planned properly. Engineers who took the interview came late and asking the same questions their peers had asked earlier. This shows there is no coordination between the team as even being in the team the engineers work independently. I would suggest them asking questions related to the position instead of asking irrelevant basic stuff?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How BGP works? IBGP vs eBGP?
What is Anycast?
What is VPN? Define IP Sec?
How layer-2 frames are forwarded? Seriously? This is one of the irrelevant questions asked which was not required as it was simple but caused confusion because when you are asking high level BGP operation how can you fall back and ask Layer-2 traffic flow?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Verizon (Arlington, VA) in Feb 2012

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Verizon (Basking Ridge, NJ) in Sep 2016
Interview
I first did an online video montage where you can re-record yourself as many times as you want. About a month later I got a call that said I was invited to the interview super day. At the superset the interview was all behavioral questions.
