I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Mediacom Communications (Apache Junction, AZ) in June 2018
Interview
standard interview process really. . . standard questions and format. slight emphasis on technical savvy. Questions on Customer Service philosophy, work ethic, technical ability, I feel that they were thorough but not unfair.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
standard CSR interview questions, one networking question
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Mediacom Communications (Springfield, MO) in Apr 2016
Interview
Fast moving, apply online in the morning and have a telephone interview in a few hours. Demonstrate you aren't fully comatosed nor narcoleptic while understanding Traceroute and you're invited to their recruiting office. The screening is just banal and their tests are geared for the lowest common denominator by determining if you can add two numbers smaller than 10 or capable of reading monosyllabically without experiencing a psychotic break.
The vast majority of questions and hypothetical scenarios revolve around angry customers, how would the candidate deal with what is seemingly a pervasive customer angst that has graduated into tangibly evil infectious rage of subscriber hatred for their unreliable Mediacom Cable TV / Internet package.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Do you have a reliable car? Do you have an alarm clock?!?!?! In the past have you ever missed work without advising your supervisor ahead of time or by phone ? DO YOU KNOW TCP/IP on Windows?
What is traceroute? [THIS WAS THE ONLY TECHNOLOGY COMPETENCE ORIENTED QUESTION ASKED IN THE SCREENING PROCESS FOR THEIR Internet Services Tech Support Agent position]
