I keep telling people.

EVERYTHING you need to know is on our website.

Go to VZW.com and chose careers from the About Us dropdown box on the righthand side to get there manually.

Glad I could help!

Bah, if i were to guess i'd say maybe 5% of the jobs are filled up from online applicants...

Everyone I know/knew that I worked with got in through referrals somehow.

I already submitted my application online to Cingular, Verizon, NexTel (I don't want to work for T-Mobile or Sprint).

Tmobile actually compensates their employees quite well, and the corporate culture is great. I've got a buddy that works at a call center as a lead.

The estimated 5% figure may only be based on the quality of those who apply online. With your qualifications, you would probably have the same odds of getting hired no matter where you go through. I would personally prefer to go in person, that way your face is associated with your resume. It also gives you a good opportunity to make a great first impression, and show your personality. Good luck! 🙂

I'll say. VZW treat all of us just fine. Benefits, anual raises, and best of all in this economy... 40+ hours a week...

Maybe Mr. Ex- is bitter because he wasn't the hard-working, loyal employee that VZW was looking for...

MR/MRS VZWCustServ, There is a BIG difference between a "good job" and a job you merely stay in because the economy is bad and cannot find anything better. Working for VZW maybe a good job for those who live in armpit USA where there maybe no large companies around for miles, for people like myself in a large metropolitan area it is NOT. Let me guess, you work at the South Carolina Call Center. Next time you get a chance to speak to people at the Morristown, NJ and/or the Orangeburg, NY call centers you may want to ask them how VZW has treated them. Last I heard the company was laying them all off and taking their jobs to North Carolina.

The company is not laying them off unless they want to be laid off. The company is offering them to move with their job or take a position in another department. So they have three options and two of them involve staying employed by VZW.

I don't mean to boast, but if you're saying that VZW isn't a good job or doesn't pay well.. 🙄 ... I live in the L.A. metropolitan area (and in an upper-class city) in my own apartment, I own a new Porsche and just bought a new Yamaha R6 street bike. Just turned 22. I can thank VZW for all that I have.

I don't know how customer service is,...
(continues)

So basically you are saying you are making, lets see....$600 month for the Porche, maybe $240 a month for the bike....insurance 1200 a month 😛
and another $900 for the Apt...

Yep you are making a fortune! You can thank the the Bank and the landlord for the toys.They are the real owners..Now THEY are making the big money!!!

Sorry could'nt resist

Let him enjoyed all the toys while he can, they are expensive. 😎

This is why folks. Sales. I've been in sales before. It's stressful(too stressful for me), but if you want, you can make whatever amount of money you want just by working as hard as possible at it.

85percent, you have yourself to thank for all that money and success, Verizon just provided the opportunity and a nice commission structure.

True. The commission structure with VZW is by far more advanced than most other carriers however because the way it's set up gives us more incentive to sell while almost doubling company revenue at the same time.

Hmmm... well, I think Seattle counts as a major metropolitan area, and as a rep just starting to look at all of the different fields with Verizon I can branch out into, along with good pay, and of course, the reason I started working at Verizon: tuition reimbursement. I think I'll be here for quite sometime.

I did not work there as a janitor, Mr. Brown nose.

brown nose.....maybe
employed.......yes
making a boat load more money than you.....most likely so

You guessed wrong and you know what they say about people who ass-u-me. You must have worked for some pretty bad employers if VRZ is the best job you have ever had. The fact of the matter is that I walked out on VRZ because I could not take all their B.S. Good benefits you say, ex. When I worked there the company offered only 5 stingy paid sick days a year and if or when you exceeded this you ran into the possibility of getting fired on your 6,7, etc. incident. Has this changed, Mr/Mrs Getupandsmellthecoffe?

Yeah Verizon pretty much sucks. I am making more as a retail customer support rep (entry level position) than I was at my last job as a Food and Beverage Manager/ a staff of about 20 people under me. 5 sicks days, 7 personal days and 2 weeks vacation, better insurance plans than my wife has and she works for the govt., better 401k plan than her also. Not to mention the fact that I got a raise and a bonus this year. Oh yeah I forgot to mention that I have only worked the company since November 2003. I also did not mention all of the training VZW has provided and the fact that they have been been ranked as one of the best companies to work for in regards to the training that they provide to their employees. And I can get 100% tuition rei...

They really do. 😁 last placed i worked, more than 4 years back I was making way less money and doing more, I was paying double for insurance without any dental 👿 , no 401k, no personal days, only 3 sick days a year, if you exceeded those no pay for those days, no raise for a while, no short term, no bonuses, no employee, now they did have 100% tuition reimbursement at one and when I left and started w/vzw they closed 4 months later. Lucky me, nothing is perfect but is way much better. 🤣

I meant employee plan or discounts.
