I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Ericsson (Rome) in Oct 2019
Interview
Il colloquio si è svolto con una persona del personale e con il responsabile dell'ufficio che ha aperto la posizione da cercare. Ho ricevuto sia domande aperte e sia domande specifiche sulle attività svolte. In particolare chiedono nomi di persone che possano certificare la tua esperienza.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Ericsson (Toronto, ON) in Mar 2021
Interview
I applied on 16th of January 2021, called for interview on 4th of March 2021 (to have it on the same day via MS Teams), received verbal offer on March 8th and final offer March 17th (after a few approvals).
Background verification took almost 2 weeks, and the whole process from interview till onboarding almost 6 weeks.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I had interview with a director (my manager) and 2 other project managers (my peers). Since I was a previous Ericsson employee almost all the questions were related to XLPM/PROPS-C process (Ericsson project management methodology) and telco rollout process and lifecycle...
A few questions about working in Matrix environment and escalation path, customer engagement and stakeholder management.
Not many behavioral questions.
Two interviews with about four people total, the first lasting 45 minutes, the second lasting an hour and a half. The hiring decision took about four or five weeks. Did not seem long given the circumstances.
