I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Verizon (Providence, RI) in Feb 2017
Interview
Very impressed with the hiring process. The assessment test is an hour and a half and was what impressed me the most because they covered a great amount of what's it like to work at a call center and your job responsibilities. Having over 10 years working for a call center, I could relate with most questions! Very professional, with the 1st phone interview. Then if you pass, your emailed to complete the assessment test. If you pass the assessment test, you proceed to the face to face interview. If you qualify, you get a phone call with the job offer. This process took maybe 2 weeks tops!
