I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AT&T
Interview
The first part of the interview is a webcam where they screen you for personality, sales aptitude but most importantly customer service. Nothing difficult just basic background information and previous customer service experiences, challenges. For second part of the interview I was flown to Atlanta for a full day of interviewing, networking and round table discussions. The entire day you are being evaluated for how you interact with the leadership and the people currently in the program. Do not let you guard down all day, as even the lunch is scored and recapped at the end of the day. I got an offer about a week later.

Question 1
The most difficult part was not being too overwhelmed with the entire process. They want you to continuously ask questions about the position so make sure you have a book of job related questions to ask.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AT&T in Mar 2013
Interview
I applied online and recieved a call from HR within a week. The college recruiter was a nice lady from Florida, she called on a tuesday and scheduled a webcam interview on friday; she will send a link which allows you to download the AT&T webcam connect. She is very polite, friendly, and makes you feel very comfortable during the interview. I actually thought I was doing very well because she would respond to some of my interview answers, for example, when she asked about a weakness after I explained my answer in detail she told me a story about when she had to interview 500 people. The interview took 30 mintues and after the interview I was allowed to asked questions. I asked about the day-to-day responsibilitites and the next step in the hiring process; I felt like I should of asked more questions. She told me I would hear back from her on Tuesday. I felt very confident about the interview, but on tuesday morning I received a email explaining I didn't meet all of the required criteria for the position. None of the questions were difficult.

2nd step is a online interview. You'll see a short pre-recorded video where a retail manager will ask you an interview question. You have 3 seconds to think of an answer before it begins recording you. Once you are done, you push stop. Total of 6-8 questions.
