      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Lumen in Mar 2019

      Interview

      Phone Screen took about 30 minutes and asked normal hr questions. Web interview was more intensive on how I would handle the job. It was a quick process and if never had a Skype interview can be quite frightening.
