I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Verizon (Laurel, MS) in Dec 2012
Interview
The interview was intense. A minimum of 1 week preparation including 90-day business plan, role play, and character questions. Know the location before you apply as well as scout the store to know exactly what the traffic and culture is like before applying. It gives you an opportunity to make a well informed decision on your fit for the location.
