You'll first interview with an agency. If they approve, you'll then meet the hiring manager. NRG is downtown, and traffic is terrible, so leave an hour early. New employees don't get a warm welcome from the existing staff.

I spoke with 2 upper level managers. They asked standard customer service questions and then we did a role-play for 2 service calls. After that, they took me on a tour of the facilities. They mentioned that the company has a long hiring process, and it might take up to 6 weeks to get hired.

The interview process was pretty straightforward and comfortable. I had two interviews, and both were virtual. The hiring team was really quick and efficient in responding to me. I was nervous at first, but I realized I had no reason to be.
