I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at T-Mobile (Bellevue, WA) in May 2008
Interview
Because I was interviewing as an internal employee, for a position under the same Sr. Manager, the interview process was shortened considerably. They were quite considerate, making sure that I was one of the first interviewed. I did have to wait several weeks to hear back from them, and obviously I would have wished it was shorter.
In all of my interviews that I have had a T-Mobile, I have found that the process can take a very long time, even when you do end up being offered the position. From others who interview at other companies I frequently hear that they will hear back within a week, sometimes much sooner, as to whether or not they will be continuing through the process. Unfortunately that isn't the case with T-Mobile. They are also not extremely communicative.
But don't assume that just because you don't hear that you definitely will or won't get the job, in my experience.

Question 1
What have been some test cases that you have put together, and afterwards, did you find that they were thorough enough?
I applied online. I interviewed at T-Mobile (Seattle, WA) in Sep 2024
Interview
After months of applying to different jobs, I finally got an email back. I first filled out a questionnaire and submitted a writing sample to the recruiter. After that step, I met directly with the hiring manager, who was a Director, for the 20 minute prescreen. Sadly, I didn’t make it past that but generally, the process was OK. my only complaint was when I emailed the recruiter after the,” thanks but no thanks “ email I asked if there was any feedback I could get. I understand this is not standard, but this is a problem I have with the industry at large. The time and effort that we put in as jobseekers sees very little respect and time and feedback from the companies that we hope to give our best to.

Question 1
How do you effectively communicate between positions with very different disciplines? So to speak: from illegal counselor to a software engineer?
It was multiple rounds of virtual interviews. There was the initial phone screen, a couple were with cross-functional teams, and lastly with the hiring manager. It took a month or so to hear back about my application, and the interview process took about 2 weeks
