      Technical Specialist Interview

      16 June 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Sydney
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Telstra (Sydney)

      Interview

      I was recruited through Telstra Graduate Program. I went through 2 rounds of interviews with different engineering team managers. They only asked very general technical questions such as what port numbers do you know, and some behavior questions such as what if you are working with someone who you do not like to work with.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Behavior questions to test your personality and attitudes. How will you deal with other people who are giving you a hard time?

      Technical Specialist Interview

      27 Oct 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Telstra in Sept 2014

      Interview

      Applied via Telstra career website. Received contact from Telstra HR after 3 weeks for Initial phone screening. Did an Online test one day later and proceeded to Second phone interview (behavioral). Telstra HR was very professional and friendly which eased a lot of my nerve. Received an invitation for a Face-to-face interview (behavioral and technical). It's crucial to practice behavioral questions based on your own experience and stories. The technical questions covered a rather wide span of areas so it's best to do revision as well.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about a time when you anticipated a client's need?
