I applied through other source. I interviewed at Verizon
Interview
A representative for the company reached out and sent a list of questions that would be asked in the simple pre-screen interview, followed by attending the lunch and learn session. Then there are two more interviews that must be passed and a committee will decide if you are a good fit for the Adfellows program.

You will be asked about your overall marketing and career goals. Make sure to have a clear definition of what that looks like, especially if you have a non traditional background.
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Verizon (New York, NY) in Sep 2020
Interview
group interview depending on your partner diversity program, T. Howard will have you do an hour long group interview before getting to interview with the Verizon partners. Then, interview with two people from a partner company, then a phone screen and that's it. It was pretty good. The partner interview was very conversational.
