- Applied online, got an interview two weeks later. - All behavioural questions; seemed scripted. - Communication between HR and project manager pretty poor, post-interview took a while. - Thought there would be some technical questions since I applied for the tech department but didn't get any - Took a long time to schedule the interview time - Interviewer was very nice and kind; made the interview kind of light

Interviewed
It was a 45 min long interview. There were two interviewers. They asked about the area of preference and would decide later on the team which fits the candidate best. There were mixed questions both behavioral and technical for twenty minutes each. Can be pretty hectic. Should inform better about the interview process.

Interviewed Sep 2,016 in Calgary, AB (took 30 days)
Very lengthy and asked many questions not really related to the job position. The behavioral questioning aspect of the interview was quite intimidating. Several screening interviews were performed prior to the face to face interview. The post interview I did not receive any response regarding my status of the application or interview even though I asked.

Very good 1st interview phone screen....HR handled this very well....however the potential second interview was not handled very well...they expected candidates to do a business case as part of the 2nd interview...this is known as free consulting and stealing your IP....because of this ask...I withdrew from the process....this seems to be the standard protocol with the big 3 telecoms....so beware if you decide to interview with any of these companies.

Interviewed Jan 2,017 in Toronto, ON (took 3 days)
I had applied for a specific role, like most people do and was contacted by the HR recruiter and informed that I am up for a total of 5 roles and would be meeting with a panel of directors for all of the roles. Like all Telus interviews, I was provided a case to complete which was unrelated to the role I applied to, but did what I could with it. I was never given the job descriptions of the other roles I was put up for so went in blindly for those positions. I was also interviewed with only 2 hiring managers, and neither of them were for the role I actually applied to. This was a clear bait and switch and if this is how Telus conducts its hiring process now, then I worry about how they conduct their business. Telus is now off my list of prospective employers, especially since their pay is low compared to the other carriers anyway.

Long process, disorganized. Had to meet with several people who were not related to the role but seemed to want to insert themselves into the process. The environment did not seem to be very inviting and everyone seemed to be going through the motions but didn't have their heart in the organizations.
