I was an internal candidate. Applied for position, I ad to know who was in the department and get an introduction before I was to be considered for the position. I did a phone interview, giving me an outline for a panel presentation. The phone interview was informal, and did not get into any of my history, or experience. As an internal candidate it was already well known. I then arrived to do my group panel presentation as a business analysis of the proposed market I would be taking over. I preformed a full market-analysis, and provide demographics, areas of focus for lead development, and exptected revenue penetration for the market. I then went into my experience, my background prior to AT&T, and my accomplishments as an AT&T employee. On my final 1:1 interview with our Regional VP, I had a chance to again give my presentation, and really talk 1:1 about my vision, and his vision for me. It was an excellent opportunity to get to know my VP, and let him know my aspirations. After the interview, I was told they would be in touch in about 2 weeks with a final decision....20 minutes later, I received a phone call saying I was being offered the position.
