Flight and Hotel were on my own dime due to being a union job and contract requirements. Took the POSS and had my interview all in about 3 hours on sight. I did not get a tour of the plant or get to meet anyone other than the two interviewers and test administrator. Relaxed interview environment that consisted of a standardized set of questions. Questions were not very technical.

I applied for the Non-Licensed Operator position through the Dominion Power website. After my resume was reviewed, I received an email from their HR department stating they would like to schedule an initial phone interview. I logged on to their site to pick one of three available blocks to have their HR department contact me for the interview. The call came within 5-10 minutes of the scheduled time block which made it very easy to get all of the information I needed/wanted to have with me for the interview. The interview was fairly standard. The person I spoke to was very polite and patient with me as I answered her questions. Some of the questions were: If I knew anyone that worked for the company or had any family members that worked for the company. What skill sets do you think best suit someone who holds this position. What is an area in your skill sets that you believe you have the most room for growth and improvement. Did I know about the area and is it an area that I see myself living in. Where do I see myself in five years. Relocation assistance is not given, is this job still an option for me. After the interview was complete, the representative asked if I had any questions for them. I asked a few questions and they were very open to answering them. They thanked me for my time and let me know what the next steps would be within the interview/hiring process. This was my first phone interview, and I was pleasantly surprised with the experience.
