I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lumen (Denver, CO) in Aug 2021
Interview
Very simple and straightforward. The first interview is through a website where you answer questions and you have a couple tries. It ends with two interactive games so it’s best to complete on your phone. After that you’ll get an interview with a rep.
