I was given two phone interviews.

The first interview lasted fifteen minutes. The second interview lasted ten minutes.

Both interviewers were managers I was expected to report to directly. They were concerned with both my technical experience, as well as my academic acumen in writing detailed technical reports. Also, they showed some concern with my ability to work within a team environment.

All their concerns were eased based on my previous experiences.

Afterwards, I was told to expect either an email or phone call noting the results of the interview. Two days later, I was both called and emailed that I passed the interview.

I was asked detailed questions about my technical background in the telecommunications and online networking fields. The interviewers also wanted to know what type of projects I worked on. They further inquired about my knowledge of customer service, billing, and mobile applications. Lastly, they asked if I had any project management or report writing experience. The details listed on my resume, including various tasks and experiences from my time in the military and as a student, satisfied these questions.

Q: What was one thing that they asked you?

A: I was asked about the latest telecommunications systems I worked with and what type of equipment I was familiar with.
