Anyone here work for Sprint? Questions for you.

[sandmanwake]

Alright then, so I have an interview with them next week for an associates engineering job.
First question, what's the difference between an associates engineer and a regular one?

How much should I be asking for if they offer me a job? I'm going to be graduating this May with a BS in CompE.

Do you like working for Sprint? Why or why not?

What sort of questions should I be expecting for this interview?

Type of work environment? Casual dress?

What sort of questions should I ask at this interview to show them that I'm really interested in working for them?

What sort of info should I casually drop that I know about Sprint that shows I did my research on them.

Finally, is there anyone here high up enough in Sprint to just order the interviewing person to give me a job? --Just kidding on that last one.

I work for sprint, and all your questions could be different depending on city/bldg location.

How much should I be asking for if they offer me a job? I'm going to be graduating this May with a BS in CompE.
See above, if I knew which city it was in, I might be able to tell ya.. But it will probably just be starting salary...

Do you like working for Sprint? Why or why not?
I really like working for sprint. Benefits are AWESOME. I work with great people and the opportunity for advancement is very high. Not to mention they pay for me to get all of my certifications..

What sort of questions should I be expecting for this interview?
When I interviewed I was given a behavioral interview, along with technical questions, etc....

Type of work environment? Casual dress?
Again depends on which location you work at, My location is casual, but if you work on the Sprint Campus in KC, it is ties everyday.

What sort of questions should I ask at this interview to show them that I'm really interested in working for them?
hmmm.. I will think about this..
What sort of info should I casually drop that I know about Sprint that shows I did my research on them.
I will think about this also...

What kind of benefits do you get? Just curious, because I've considered working for them before (moving to the Kansas City area soon).

Most likely, the location will either be Reston, Virginia or Atlanta, Georgia.

Reston would be a good spot, I will check on the open jobs there..

Well I was mainly talking about the Medical/Dental/401k/ESPP (stock)/etc for the benefits... It is very cheap, even for familys...

However we do get $30 a month for long distance calls (if you work for the LDD side like I do)
