Interviewed Sep 2010 in Wayne, PA (took 5 days)
Telephone screening, then in for group panel interview at client location for a couple hours.
The people seemed nice enough, but the questions were relentless at times. The work culture appeared to be tight with good camaraderie but a lot of distractions in the workplace. Less rigid than Comcast Corporate downtown, but more formal than most.
Reason for Declining
Too slow to respond (had already accepted another offer), not much vacation
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Group/Panel Interview.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Philadelphia, PA (took 4+ weeks)
I applied through the university career center.
The first round was on campus. Lasted about 45 minutes. Lots of behavioral questions (mostly focused on teamwork). Couple questions about Comcast ("What do you know about our company?"), and a couple technical questions ("What's the difference between C and Matlab?" )
The final round consisted of three 1-1 interviews (each lasted 30 minutes). 90% behavioral questions, which 2 of the 3 interviewers read from an interviewing package they had.
I thought the interviews went really well, but I didn't get the job. I never got the usual "We will be pursuing other candidates" letter, or a phone call, or an email. Nothing. I sent a few emails to HR inquiring about my application status. No response... I finally gave up

Interviewed Oct 2008 in Wilmington, DE (took 2 weeks)
Interview process was short, 3 interviews. One with Recruiter to see how you fit the job description will ask what makes you feel fit for this job, what experience with computers do you have. For the job i interviewd for, i was asked to describe things such as WWW, TELNET, Hub, Network, things of the IT nature. 2nd interview was with a Team leader in the Advanced Products group. They listen for your tone while you talk, of course its for a call center job, so they listen for grammar.

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Philadelphia, PA (took 6 months)
The interview process was lengthy, and without clear direction. I feel as though I was strung along, having dealt the potential of an offer during a recessionary economic phase for over six months. In the end, I was one of three external candidates for one opening, however, senior management mandated the hiring of a last-minute, internal, candidate for the job. I was sold a bill of goods.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in Philadelphia, PA (took a day)
It was very rushed - to the ridiculous point. First person I spoke with during the phone interview was 10 minutes late and then told me he had to stop the interview at 1:30 (it was now 1:10) because 'he had to be somewhere else". I suggested re scheduling - no such luck. I never got to ask any questions. The 1:1 interview/panel interview consisted of two HR people - one of whom was the person I had the phone interview with. And once again - late. I have to say my impression of this company is ZERO because I was rushed, interviewers kept looking at their watches/blackberrys to check the time because they had 'to be somewhere else at 2."

Interviewed Feb 2010 in Phila, PA (took 1 week)
1st a phone interview with 2 individuals. One of them kept prodding to get at my age. I refuse to answer.
then called in for a face to face with 5 people. Very repetitive, and some were running late but still wanted to asked all their questions, so it felt like I was on a game show and the clock was ticking.
3 hours later I was done, and 2 months later I have not received a letter or email with their decision nor have I been reimbursed for my expenses.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Philadelphia, PA (took 2 days)
The best interviw wass the one with the contractor interviewer. The Excutive Recruiter did not know I who I had spoken to or even as much about the job as the Web ad. Then the supervisors of the position did not know who I had interviewed with or who I would interview with next. They had not looked at my information prior to the meeting or looked at it compared to the job description. In all did not feel I was a seriously consdiered candidate.

Interviewed Apr 2008 in Philadelphia, PA (took 2 days)
Pretty straight forward, you say the right things, you get in. They just want to make sure you have run operations before
Interviews for Software Engineers are more rigorous (Google lite)

Three back-and-forth exchanges with HR. They pushed down $5K, that was within my acceptable range, so I accepted.

Interviewed Aug 2009 in Plymouth Meeting, PA (took 2 weeks)
Contacted by recruiter had to get a phone interview, then take a personality test, then a skills and intelligence test. After I passed that, then I went on the 1:1 interview. Interviewer didn't really seem prepared and didnt even seem interested in the interview as soon as we walked in the door. She said they would contact me the following week and several emails and phone calls later I haven't heard anything, so I assume I didnt get the job

Interviewed Jun 2009 in Philadelphia, PA (took 6+ weeks)
Hiring manager didn't seem to know what she wanted. Couldn't distinguish between what is currently in place vs. what she would like to see put in place. No feedback provided. Did not allow for a question to be fully answered before the other interviewer would cut off with a new topic and question.
