I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Verizon (Irving, TX) in Aug 2011
Interview
I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn and first went through a technical screening which was pretty straighforward behavioral questions. The next round was another phone technical interview with a member of the team i would later be working on.
1. Basic OOPS concepts, questions about design patterns and database questions.
I was first called by someone in the HR department to schedule a short phone interview. During the phone interview, we discussed my resume and she stated she would provide a summary of that to the hiring manager. Then the hiring manager called and scheduled an in person interview. That interview lasted about 1 hour and was full of questions.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Verizon (Sacramento, CA)
Interview
The first interview is over the phone and pretty basic. It is just a review of your work experience. Interview with District Manager is very relaxed. Obviously must dress professional and present yourself well. The first interview may be your last if you do well. The training lasts two weeks and throws you right into the action. It could be a little longer to prepare you more but if you pay attention and work hard you will be successful.
