I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Electronic Arts (Austin, TX)
Interview
After submitting my resume, I was emailed within 3-4 days and asked to come in for an face-to-face interview a couple days from then.
The interview was with the area manager and one of the team leads. Both were very down to earth. It never felt like I was being double teamed or flanked with questions from both. They each had questions about what type of video games I like, which was to be expected since EA is a video game publisher. They gave me a run down on how their operation worked at their office, which is basically category-based call center. Game Advisors are split into different tiers of support, each with their own studio (section) in the office. These sections have about 10-16 advisors in each, with team lead (manager) assisting them.
After going over the job expectations, they asked me why I choose to apply to EA. They also asked if I was comfortable having my support metrics tracked. The interview process lasted about 10 minutes, then I was given a tour of the office (which is pretty cool).
Within 24 hours after the interview, I was sent an email offering me the job.

Nothing new under the sun. You will be asked to introduce yourself and explain why you have applied for EA. In my case, the interviewer was very friendly, easy going and helpful.

Be prepared to provide details.
If you don't have any experience/education related to the video games industry, you would face objections.
