I applied through other source. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AT&T in Apr 2012
Interview
I was an internal candidate.
Applied for position, I ad to know who was in the department and get an introduction before I was to be considered for the position. I did a phone interview, giving me an outline for a panel presentation. The phone interview was informal, and did not get into any of my history, or experience. As an internal candidate it was already well known.
I then arrived to do my group panel presentation as a business analysis of the proposed market I would be taking over. I preformed a full market-analysis, and provide demographics, areas of focus for lead development, and exptected revenue penetration for the market. I then went into my experience, my background prior to AT&T, and my accomplishments as an AT&T employee.
On my final 1:1 interview with our Regional VP, I had a chance to again give my presentation, and really talk 1:1 about my vision, and his vision for me. It was an excellent opportunity to get to know my VP, and let him know my aspirations.
After the interview, I was told they would be in touch in about 2 weeks with a final decision....20 minutes later, I received a phone call saying I was being offered the position.

Interview
I first had the interview over the internet while on the phone with a bunch of other people, listening about the job. Then I was scheduled for testing which will last about 3hrs. The test was ok, started out with sentences with words and you figure out their meanings, Then, what is the best answer on how I feel, (there is no wrong answer to these questions (so they say right?) then math, and you need to know percents!!!! I don't :( can't use your cell phone to figure it out. There is customer calls pretend ones of course, and you have to type their name in the spaces, and all their info, you can however have it repeated by pressing this button, I did, but I learned that you can only press it like 3 times or you are out of luck, its best to write down the info first on the paper they give you. I really thought I did good on the test but I guess not, because by the time I got home I got an email to say I didn't pass :( I did apply for the collectiions position too but they said its similar on the testing so i would just have to pick what job I wanted if I passed the test. The test is LONGgggg SO be ready for that.. I was there for 2 1/2hrs and I was one of the first 3 that was done first, many others were still in there.. I really don't know if they cut you off after so long... It seems like a good company, I did notice that there is MORE minorities then anyone else. I think I have seen ONLY 2 white people in the whole building and everyone seems young like under 30, and I have seen A LOT of people coming and going...Not sure if that means anything.. O and it seems to be very casual, JEANS, TENNIS SHOES, SHORTS.... GOOD LUCK :)

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at AT&T (Austin, TX) in Apr 2011
Interview
Applied online for a CSR position. Had 7 years experience. Took a personality and skills assessment test in a classroom setting with a group of 20 - 25 persons. The test consisted of math questions, upsell skills, and personal information (age, gender, etc...). I aced all sections of skill assessment and was the second person to finish the exam. Upon completion, the facilitator had a brief conversation with each applicant about the next step of the process. I was told simply "You did not meet the standards." I spoke with each person that was rejected (all white males over the age of 40) and learned they got the same message. As I left the call center (unescorted) I took a stroll through the call center floor and noticed that all employees were minorities and women. The only white male in the building was a handicapped individual in a wheelchair.
'Nuff said?
