Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

How to get a job at Verizon wireless?

Would someone be able to help me. I've graduated from high-school last two weeks ago.

Thank you!

Verizon will buy that bridge if you raise the price high enough.

"...I have a bridge in Brooklyn New York that I'm putting up for sale..."

@NZj0AuC-1waw,

Only 1/2 the bridge is in Brooklyn.

If you're selling, you should play up it's Manhattan footprint.

In real estate, it's all about location, location, location.

I am interested in the bridge you're selling. How much $ you looking to unload it for?

Ok...does anyone actually believe this post to be genuine? If so...and I see a lot of replies with the notion it is....I have a bridge in Brooklyn New York that I'm putting up for sale....real cheap too by the way.......Oh ...Not the bridge is cheap...the price.....I think I have to spell that out for most of you.

Let's see a 17 or 18 year old High School student has not only come to a Layoff board.....but then posts looking for a job.

Again, The bridge is somewhat old but very rustic and I'm willing to negotiate.

DONT! If you are smart run away as fast as you can. This is coming from someone with 20+ years. Left this year and never been happier.

@1szu, we can all read what @1nmu had already written. No need for the English-to-English translation, unless of course you're from The Department of Redundancy Department.

Yes, @1evt, judgment is judgement in British English. But I'm not judging. (Wot, no e ?) ;-)

@1uyg, and don't spell judgment judgement. Shows a real lack of judgment. ;-)

Let me give you a tip...don't look for a job on a layoff board. Shows a real lack of judgement.

You need a 4 year degree and certification to work the one million excel spreadsheets at the basking ridge HQ Finance spreadsheet factory.

@zuv is a policeman wannabe, he tells you when there's anything else he will accept to be added to a thread, and when to end speaking. He's an amazing policeman, in his underwear of his mommy's basement at 51.

If you do so choose to work at VZW don't get caught up in shady sales tactics. Have some honor and pride and sell with integrity. Don't be sneaky and don't try to hide what you're selling. Be upfront and be truthful.

You need an associates degree to work in a cell phone store? Why? A monkey could slam tablets, accessories and HUM's. Retail is a job for idiots. Someday, leadership will realize this and remove all commission and just make it a minimum wage part time job.

Why would you want to waste your time working for Verizon? Go to college and get a real job.

We treat kids well. We also hand out lollipops (at least in my store).

OP - there is nothing else to add here @ghz - @lxt - @reo and @ryx summarized this well for you...

If you live in the northeast, speak to your guidance counselor. Verizon the company hires high school graduates for positions of technicians and customer service but not for wireless, only wireline. There are programs that Verizon participate in that hires out of high schools.

Yes, a friend of mine is one of those guys who sells Vz phones and plans at costco. He's very tech oriented and started there right out of high school while he goes to college. If you are very comfortable with what the latest in phone tech has to offer then that sort of thing might be a good direction to go. Ditto on the others that Vz itself likely doesn't hire folks right out of high school.

Probably not going to happen with just a high school diploma. I agree with the previous reply; at least an associate' s and be a few years older. You may have a better chance with a Reseller.

Don't if you don't want a high stress job. If you do don't get too emotionally invested, just save the money.

In all honesty you probably won't get hired at least for a couple years. The youngest person in my store was hired when she was 21. We all have at least Associates degrees.
