First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at TELUS.
Senior End User Computing Specialist
I was contacted through Viber for the initial interview. This interview included technical questions and a thorough screening of my past experiences, verifying my skills and certificates to ensure I meet the job requirements and am a good fit. I was told I passed the initial interview and was given pointers for review and next steps. A meeting invite will be sent for the next phase, which will involve more technical questions and demonstrating my knowledge.

Data Engineer
I went through several interviews for a Senior Data Engineer position on the AI Products & Platform team. The final stage was a technical case study, focusing on real-time data pipelines, deploying ML models, and activating them into customer-facing systems like IVR/CCAI. I liked that it felt more practical and closer to real production issues than purely theoretical interviews. The panel was professional and attentive, and the questions touched upon system design choices, latency, handling failures, monitoring, and costs. The format allowed me to explain the thinking behind my architecture, not just list technologies. My advice: be ready to talk about real-world tradeoffs, operational aspects, and how ML results are securely activated in live systems. Be clear and concise when presenting your design and reasoning.
- What type of metrics would you monitor in your pipeline?
Study Moderator
The application process was straightforward. My initial conversation with the recruiter was positive, though it took longer than expected to hear back about my application status. Later, I was considered for a different study and interviewed with the project management team. It was a bit unusual that the interviewers kept their webcams off the whole time while mine was on. The interaction didn't feel like a typical interview, more like a personality assessment.

The hiring process was a breeze, super quick and clear from start to finish. I always knew what was happening next, which made it totally stress-free. The interviews were set up nicely, and they made sure I had everything I needed. What was really cool was how fast everything moved – I got from applying to an offer in just a few weeks! Seriously, it was a super professional and candidate-friendly way to do things, making me feel confident, valued, and really excited to join.
