I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at T-Mobile (Syracuse, NY) in Jun 2010
Interview
Must apply through the website and MUST use Internet Explorer. After applying, must complete an assessment which will be scored (but you never get to see your scores). Your application will then sit in a pool of other apps for six months until you can apply again. It is very important that you call the sites you are interested in and ask to schedule a time to speak with the site manager. You have to work to get the ball rolling.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Focus on answering how you can deal with and serve all types of people. Focus on how you love money and want to make a lot of it (this is how everyone above you gets paid).
Exclusive Wireless handling the interviews for T-mobile. Offer given, then the offer was rescinded. My interview may be unorthodox since the district store manager caught me scanning the QR code to the hiring application and my pre job interview started there immediately onsite. After confirming I had a highschool degree, answering why I want to work in sales and if I was committed to stay in the position with some other behavioral chat we rescheduled for a proper interview for the next day over video chat. I was asked again about my commitment and if I would commit for at least 6 months. Previously I said I could commit and again I said I could commit for that time since it seemed the most important factor in the interviews. I was texted about an offer, called back around 30 minutes later and there was no answer it was Friday. By Monday I had thought I may leave sooner than 6 months since I was already in the middle of a job search and I wanted to clarify that about my commitment even though I was still interested in working the position the best I could as long as I could. In response my offer was rescinded.
I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at T-Mobile
Interview
Multiple interviews with different managers that all pulled from the same script of bland and uninspiring corporate speak and core questions. It felt devoid of personal touch, crafted by lawyers, and in lock-step with a predetermined formula that wasn't allowed to deviate from the course. Nice people, but the process felt very mechanical. To be expected from a company of that size, I suppose.
I applied online. I interviewed at T-Mobile (Stockton, CA)
Interview
After I had applied, I got a call a week later for an interview. The interview was a very disappointing experience for me, this was a week ago and I finally met with the manager who called me in. You can tell he is young, probably about 25 years old, and he was HIGH! I could tell immediately his eyes were red and lips were very blue. He had me do our interview standing up in the corner of the store while the other associates were standing behind me talking. The manager who interviewed me seemed all over the place with his questions, and kept stumbling over his words. He was also super casual, the experience just didn’t seem professional at all. Kept asking me questions about co-worked dilemma situations. I’m still really disappointed, I’m really motivated for the job and have the right experience, I know I could have got the job if I had been interviewed by the right manager with interview experience. The manager also didn’t describe the job title or give much information, until I asked more questions towards the end. After our interview is over, all he had told me was to look out for an email from them.... it’s been a little over a week and I haven’t heard back from them.
