I've had a lot of interviews with VZW, mostly as an internal employee. It doesn't matter what position you apply for, HR is going to want to know how you go above and beyond to help the customer. HR has a standard list of questions they give to everyone that literally asks "tell me about a time you went above and beyond for a customer." So be prepared even if you're not customer facing.
A question I got from the engineering director was "describe to me a troubleshooting method that would work yesterday, but not on a technology of today." He had a few of these 'on your feet thinking' type questions not specifically related to any job.
The hiring manager had his own list of questions each time specific to the job applying for. If you're in the field already, they will be easy questions. If you're not in the field then you won't know them. The only way you got an interview by not being in the field was if you were recommended by a current employee, at which point the questions won't matter anyways, you're there for them to meet and judge you as a person and if you'd fit the group. Honestly, if you want to shine and you're not already in the field, think about typical HR questions.
The hiring process is slow, but I don't have much to compare it to. The reason its slow is that there are a lot of departments that intertwine, so when they post the first position externally, they might take a second run at finding an internal employee. You never know. But, I'd say each step takes a month. HR likes to flex their muscle once in a while too, to show a hiring manager they don't call all the shots. So they may pull a wild card and start the process over from scratch.

The customer service type questions when going for a non-customer facing position really threw me. Seriously, you have to make yourself sound like a customer service hero. I don't get it.
I had a video call where all three interviewers kept their cameras off, while I was the only one visible. I haven't encountered this in other companies—it felt disrespectful and unprofessional, as if they wanted to dismiss me as quickly as possible.

The interviewing process was pretty standard: the first was an HR interview with general questions about what I was looking for in the job, what sort of skills I have, why I was interested, etc. The second interview was with the hiring manager over the phone with more information about the team as a whole, as well as questions again about why I was interested, what brought me to applying, and so forth. The last interview was over Skype (I applied from out of state and they allowed me to interview over Skype instead of flying out) with the hiring manager and a few members of the team. They gave me a list of questions ahead of the interview to prepare and show how quickly I could learn and retain information, so the interview was fairly stress free. The whole process took about three weeks, with about one interview a week, and then the offer the following week after.

There weren't any questions I struggled with, but that was also because they provide the interview questions ahead of time. The idea is that they want to see how quickly and how well you can learn and retain information. The focus was on Verizon's LTE network and mechanics, general antenna questions, and some questions on SINR/RF interference.
