It was rather quick and I kinda of had whiplash. Definitely not a bad thing. I went first to the open interviews which was about 30-45 min. First you fill out your information and they give you a short 10 question quiz then they call you and do a interview in the same room that everyone is in while like 5 or 6 other interviewers are interviewing others so it was kind of hard to hear. Other than that it only took like 10 min. They then scheduled me for a second interview which was the next day. At the second interview before I interviewed with the interviewer they made me do a typing test on Typingtest.com . They said I could take as many times as wanted but i only had to take it once. I needed to get 35 wpm on their 1-min test. I just chose the first test on there. The lady then interviewed me. Basically said if i had anything that would conflict with the job, told me hours, and then did this thing with a phone and made sure i know how to use it( go to settings, turn on/off wifi, how do i do airplane mode, where is this found, how do you check storage) basic stuff. Then she did a roleplay call with me acting like a customer calling in saying that they could not access internet and i basically told her to turn it on and to sign in to public wifi. After that She then extended the position to me and told me the project I would be working with and made me sign a non disclosure agreement for the project then filled out other information.

The interview was at the client site, typically with a Technical Support Manager and a Senior Support Engineer. The questions are usually straightforward, requiring basic knowledge of Windows administration, networking, and simple Unix commands. My interview deviated a bit from the norm, as I spoke with the Senior Technical Operations Manager, a Senior Support Engineer, and a Technical Support Manager. We chatted casually about past roles, and the atmosphere was friendly. Thankfully, it wasn't at Convergys' main office, or I might have passed on the job. Generally, the people were great and the interview content wasn't challenging.
