I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Verizon (Chennai) in Sep 2011
Interview
Only one round of technical interview, nothing like difficult. it's so easy.they basically checks whether you are capable. Interview was with only one person and he is good in technical too. Interview took around 45 mins. they asked me to write some programs in my area.
I applied for Verizon about a year ago through their website, when I was a senior at my university. I got a call from HR for a quick phone screen to see what I was doing in school and what I had experience with, and then I was emailed a week or two later for an in-person interview on my campus. This second interview was filled with behavioral questions from HR, and a few technical questions (generic technical questions like defining terms) from the managers. They sent me an email a couple of days after for one more interview--this time, to see what I had experience with (again) and how I interacted with the team.

The only "difficult" question I can remember was to define polymorphism and inheritance.
