I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at TELUS
Interview
30 min phone interview with HR, 1.5 hr case study presentation and behavioural interview with hiring manager and panel. Case was sent a few days in advance. Interviewers were nice however question period was very short and didn't allow much time to ask many questions. Hiring manager offered to answer additional questions via email but never responded. Feedback on interview noted a missing skillset that was never highlighted in the job posting or interviews. Overall the interview was alright but interactions post interview could have been improved.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at TELUS (Toronto, ON) in Nov 2014
Interview
There were 3 rounds including phone screen, If successful, you would receive a take home 48 hour Case study in preparation for in person final interview. In person interview was with 2 people and you were required to present your case study recommendation and answer any followup questions plus have a behavioural interview. Final interview was 1:1 with your manager’s manager - it was also behavioural.
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at TELUS (Calgary, AB) in Jul 2017
Interview
Extremely disappointing and shameful process for such a large company.
- phone screen with corporate HR
- telephone presentation based on academic case study at the level of a university course including Powerpoint and verbal defence of my conclusions
- comprehensive interview directly following the presentation with the hiring manager
- remote video interview with hiring manager and his supervisor a week or so later
- there were no open questions at the end of the process; my confidence was high; smiles all around
Following the interview, there was no contact whatsoever from the company and no way for me to follow up directly. I learned that the position had been filled only by reviewing the status of the position on line 4 months later.
I have hired people in the past and have seen terrible HR actions. This is one of the worst.
