Interviewed Oct 2011 in Southfield, MI (took 2 weeks)
I had a phone interview with a member of HR where I was required to disclose all of my previous employers - including specific dates of employment - for the past 7 years. At the end of the phone interview I was invited to come to the site 4 days later for a skills test and a 1:1 interview with another member of HR. The skills test was on a computer and required basic problem-solving questions as well as a multi-tasking simulation. At the end of the interview I was asked to come back to meet 1:1 with a supervisor. In this interview I was asked basic questions about previous experience, situational questions and I also listened to some phone calls with customers and was asked to provide feedback on how I felt the VZW reps handled the calls. About two weeks after the first phone conversation I received my job offer. Following the offer I went through a drug test and a background check.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in North Charleston, SC (took 2 weeks)
Interview process: I had two phone interviews and one computer assessment to apply for the role of Tech Coordinator at Verizon Wireless. The phone interviews consisted of behavioral-based interview questions. The computer assessment was a timed assessment of basic tech support related questions that anyone who's taken an A+ Certification class could easily pass.
I was offered the job because I had cellular sales experience and had worked in customer service before.
Post job offer: I now work at a call center and take back-to-back calls dealing with Blackberries, Apple products, broadband cards, and aspects of the Verizon network. I do fairly well every month with customer reviews, which are largely the basis for performance reviews.
In my years with the company, Verizon has offered prepaid tuition assistance of $8000 a year, which I've taken advantage of. It's a good company to work for.

Interviewed Jan 2012 in Branchburg, NJ (took 2 months)
First was a phone interview, followed by a half day interview with 4 managers. The HR people were very friendly and helpful in answering all questions regarding benefits and any other questions we had. The managers were very friendly and asked standard questions from a list of them they were required to ask. I left with a good feeling about the company and the people who work there. Next an HR person called to ask a few more questions and verify the online application. After they said the next step was there would be an offer or not. Within 2 weeks an offer was given and asked for a drug test to be taken within 2 days of the offer. Overall it was a very positive experience.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Smithfield, RI (took 3 months)
I applied online in September for a retail sales representative. In November I was contacted by an HR representative, who set up a phone interview with me. I apparently passed and was scheduled for an interview with a 1 on 1 interview with a HR rep and a store manager(from a different store than the one I applied to) the same day. I was informed that I would be notified in a week and a half at latest if I had gotten the job.
A week and a half later nobody had called so I e-mailed the woman who had initially set up my interview. She claimed that she was forwarding my e-mail to the appropriate person. Another week went by and nobody had gotten back to me. So I went to the store where the position was for and talked to the manager, who said he would look into it and took my name and phone number and gave me his business card. After another week of no responses I e-mailed the manager, and never received a reply. At this point I stopped trying to contact anyone. FINALLY in the middle of January over two months after I was supposed to get a reply I got an e-mail, at 4:30 AM on a Sunday saying, "Unfortunately, we have identified other candidates who more closely meet our requirements for this position at the present time."
I don't care if you don't want to hire me, but don't tell a candidate who has put long hours into preparing for an interview that you will get back to them if you have no intention to. I would have been happy with an e-mail that just said NO, instead of being led on for almost 6 months. All in all, the most unprofessional experience I have had with a business in my life.

Interviewed Jan 2012 (took a day)
I did not have to take a long assessment online, only input my basic information and answer a few questions. I was immediately contacted for a phone interview. Questions were basically related to past work experience and my understanding of the documents they had send me in the e-mail (read them thoroughly). It took about 30-40 minutes. They have scheduled me for a second phone interview, which I understand involves a lot more situational questions. We'll see how it goes.
