Sales Representative at Verizon

Accepted Offer – Reviewed May 11, 2013 New

Interview Details They gave two telephone interviews with general questions. It was pretty standard qustions about sales. The recruiter was very nice and seems to want to help people get the job.

They gave the decision within two days.
