I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Avaya (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2012
Interview
Met with team of Software Specialist Managers for a group interview where they asked a series of questions related to my experience, technical and other experience. The questions were fairly routine interview questions with no surprises. It appeared the main goal was to determine if the candidate would be technically able to handle the tasks and be a team player.
