I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Verizon in Nov 2020
Interview
One of the worst interviews I have attended. No proper communication about the interview timelines & the recruiter is not ready to share updates about the next round. I have had 2 rounds and each round was about 30 mins in which 7-10 mins was discussion about the role and the company. I am really not sure how could they figure out one's potential in just 15-30 mins especially when interviewing a candidate with 10+ years of experience. The only question they have asked me was "where do you see yourself in 5 years?" Rest of the discussion was about the manager's experience with the company and how he grew into the current positions in X years. Utter waste of time.
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Verizon
Interview
Completed three interview rounds, including a session with the full team. The process felt perfectly balanced—highly professional yet refreshingly informal. I really appreciated the transparent culture and welcoming team dynamic. Although, a little old school.
