Cricket Communications Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Once the recruiter did the initial screening, a phone interview was setup. It was a normal 20 minute discussion about overall skills, the position itself, questions, and general interest. After this, an onsite interview was established which consisted of 3 persons: the group manager, the director, and another analyst via phone to their Denver office.

I was asked about experience and given generic skills tests, like draw a Kimball data model and explain some concepts. What was interesting is the director's questions - very open ended: 1. Give me a plan to take out the trash, 2. If the website's home page went down, how would you QA the home page specifically the login? As much I I think I could read people, I had no idea how I did. I suspect, partially in hindsight, that they were very vague to assess the types of questions you ask and the overall ability to break down the problem. Who's trash? Where is the bin? What resources? Etc., not necessarily to build a perfect plan, per se.

The next day, after introspection on the interview, I called the recruiter and told her I do not think I showed enough interest (I'm reserved). To which she responded, they had gotten back to her and said they thought I was not interested enough in the position. Oh well!! But lesson is show lots of enthusiasm for Cricket!!

Interview Details – I submitted my application online. A month later i received a call from an HR recruiter and we set up an interview for a week later. At the time of the interview I was in front of her and a District Manager. They went over my resume and had me explain why I would be good for the job/company and what experience did I have to support my statements. A week later I received the offer by telephone and asked when I would be able to start.

Negotiation Details – I had experience in customer service and sales so I was able to negotiate the top of their pay scale for the position.

Interview Details – Overall a very disappointing experience. The receptionist made me wait until the movie she was watching on her computer was done to take my name. I waited another 30 minutes to be seen. I was interviewed by two people that clearly did not get along and were one upping each other during the interview. There was very little structure to the interview, jumping around from topic to topic made it hard to determine what the job would really entail.

Reason for Declining – I felt I would not be a good fit in the office overall. I was very uncomfortable with the obvious tension between the two people interviewing me, who would have been coworkers. The overall lack of professionalism was a major warning sign.

Interview Details – Started with a phone interview with HR, then 3 rounds of interviews with managers and a closing one with HR.
They were most interested in applicable experience and your ability to hit the ground running.
The people are nice and friendly, the office is brand new(LEED gold) very open as their are windows everywhere.

Negotiation Details – Since its an internship there is little negotiation but they pay well for interning

Interview Details – i had to interview with three different people. questions were more about passed experience with customers. not much of a reaction from the interviewers. if you make it throught the first two then you are basically in the door. there are background checks which they are very strict about. also drug test are needed.

Interview Details – The entire interview process was very pleasant and very professionally run. I was initially reached by the VP of H.R. who found my contact info in LinkedIn. I interviewed with 5 people and was immediately offered a job in less than a week from my last interview. The people were very professional, smart and had a good vibe about them. The work cutlure is very hard working and collegial.
