      TELESALES Representative Interview

      Aug 27, 2013
      Anonymous employee
      Orangeburg, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Verizon (Orangeburg, NY) in Oct 2012

      Interview

      I originally applied directly from verizon wireless website after hearing about an open house at the corporate office in Orangeburg NY. Within only a day i had a call from the regional HR manager. She was very kind, almost motherly in a sense and seemed very welcoming. I scheduled my interview for a few days later so i would have time to grab a new suit. The actual interview ended up as 3 separate but consecutive interviews. I first interviewed with a sales supervisor, Bobbie, who would later be my direct boss. I threw out how much i love money a few times and had him hooked. If you interview here they want to see the $$ in your eyes. Nothing else matters. I met next with the regional HR manager who originally called me. She may have asked 1 or 2 interview questions but i got her off topic and started asking about her family life and if she had kids. This was intentional. After 35 minutes or so she told me we were going to skip the third interview and go upstairs to HR for a moment. They sat me on a couch outside HR and she walked away after say "I really like you, please accept the offer".

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      There really were no difficult questions. Verizon is looking for 1 thing.....sharks. And remember, sharks are born swimming. They'll see that and take you, but if you go in and tell them how your so eager to learn you'll get rejected. They dont want to make the shark, they just want to hire one.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Verizon (Tampa, FL) in Aug 2015

      Interview

      Apply online, recruiter contacts you by email to complete online assessment, then contacts you by phone to schedule an interview. They will sometimes interview you on that first call if they're available to do so. Once the phone interview is satisfactory, they will schedule an "assessment" on-site. This assessment includes several sections, and truly takes 45 minutes to an hour to complete. There are typical "I strongly agree/disagree" questions, representative role play simulations, a reading and typing test, listening and typing tests, multitasking test, and visual test (to see how quickly you identify numbers and letters on-screen). They let you know immediately whether you pass or fail the assessment. If passed, they will generally interview you on the spot with a hiring manager. The hiring manager interview involves situational questions which I'll list below. There is also a role play with the manager for a fake sales call- you choose an electronic device, and they are looking for you to talk about the device, featured, benefits, and any applicable accessories you could sell with it. I just interviewed today, and no job was offered at the end of the interview. I'm assuming I did not pass the in person interview to their satisfaction, but I won't know for sure until I've been contacted.
