Lumen (formerly CenturyLink) Interviews Employee Reviews

What did you like most about the interview process?

The job responsibilities were discussed

It was relatively fast compared to others.

One on ones with management

Fairly quick process once past the recruiter phase.

Friendly chatter about me and my experience.

People were very professional and kind

Meeting folks from other teams and parts of the country.

Review from Sales Dept

The interviews were fairly straightforward.

Seeing just how much of a waste of good talent it is.

That it was not an extended process.

WHAT THE COMPANY EXPECTED OF YOU WERE CLEARLY EXPLAINED

Review from Communications Dept

Meeting several very impressive executives.

Review from Sales Dept

The process did not take long.

On line and easily accomplished in my schedule.

The questions were right on point and easy to answer

Review from Engineering Dept

When I interviewed years ago it was a professional process. Now they just drag inexperienced personnel off the street.

HR agent extremely through. Enjoyed it all.

Review from Finance Dept

I dont. Youve lost great honest employees

Review from Sales Dept

I was told there were lots of opportunity

I was promoted 18 years ago. The interview was over the phone.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Stop using PearsonVue to interview anyone for any position. Computers don't hire people. People hire people.

Review from Operations Dept

I interview with Northwestern Bell. This question is irrelevant.

Improve the response time between stages. If an employee applies and is a good match and or will be interviewed, don't wait 2 to 3 weeks before reaching out to them. The job market is not only competitive, but it also looks bad on the company.

Review from Sales Dept

The old manager who interviewed me was extremely disorganized. Since I started working there, they insisted my job title was something completely different from the title on my contract and the job I was offered. They were not honest about the scope of the role at all.

Get ride of woke culture

They haven't hired in years so

Get rid of hirevue and having to have diversity and gender represented on the hiring board.

Have people that DO the job be part of the interview. Actually ask questions that RELATE to the job. Stop demanding degrees and certifications that have NOTHING to do with the actual work and find out if the person you're interviewing can do what's actually needed without setting everything on fire!

Stubborn website help very frustrate

Where do you start . Whole company needs a reboot

Examples of centurylinks monroe employees

Maybe some actual interviews instead of stupid tests

Don't bother nobody wants to work for this company

being allowed to have a free conversation with the interviewer to truly get to know the candidate; versus generic questions that are not a true measure of the capabilities of the interviewee

Review from Operations Dept

Actually test for skills to do the job they are being hired for

Review from Finance Dept

too many interviews in the process

Review from Customer Support Dept

Ask questions that are more about the blending in company culture not just filling a seat for the company

Review from IT Dept
