Very simple and straightforward. The first interview is through a website where you answer questions and you have a couple tries. It ends with two interactive games so it’s best to complete on your phone. After that you’ll get an interview with a rep.

Easy Interview
Application

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lumen (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2015

Interview

The interview was entirely non-technical, only behavioral questions. He asked the typical questions regarding my strengths/weaknesses, biggest accomplishment, previous conflicts, etc. He also inquired about my interests and professional goals. I think he was primarily interested in seeing my personality and how well it would meld with the company culture.

Interview Questions
  • What would you consider your greatest professional accomplishment? How do you manage stress? What type of person would you prefer NOT to work with? Describe your greatest weakness.

Average Interview
Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Lumen (Bangalore) in Feb 2015

Interview

It was quite a lengthy process, which i did not expect. Also , they keep a lot of formalities. I had to go for 1:1 sessions thrice , which was not a feasible option as i was already working. But they did not give any option like Skype or phonic interview. The recruitment team is friendly but a little confused. I joined the company looking at the salary structure. Its been 6 months now. Hope I have a good career growth ahead.

Interview Questions
  • Why did i leave the previous company
