I was contacted by a Comcast recruiter and was asked to answer a few questions and provide availability for a virtual interview the following week. The interview never took place. Two weeks went by, and after I inquired for a status update, I was informed I was no longer in consideration for the position. I found the process to be very unprofessional and disrespectful. Obviously, Comcast doesn't "value their candidates" as much as they claim to.

The interview process was intense, which in retrospect could be predictive of the hiring manager's style. Also, note that this position has been "re-posted" twice in 6 months, which also might also be foreshadowing. First-round was intensive and consisted of two parts: 1) a timed, videotaped "interview" with three questions and 2) an interview with the hiring manager + an HR rep. The HR was highly skilled and competent. The hiring manager was defensive and aggressive and dismissive of the HR rep.
