My interview process started with a recruiter screening. The initial screening got canceled at the last minute by the recruiter because they were sick, which was inconvenient since I had already prepared. We finally connected the next week, and it seemed to go really well. The recruiter even said multiple times that I was doing great answering questions. But then, I didn't hear anything back. A few days later, I got an automated rejection email.

This was one of the worst interview experiences I've had, and I've interviewed hundreds of times across Orange County. The first round was with a lady who was okay, but pretty superficial. The second round interviewer was unnecessarily strict, condescending, and rude. I really wanted to leave in the middle of it, but I managed to stay professional. I definitely wouldn't want to work with a company like this.

The interview process went really smoothly. It started with a phone call, then I met with the manager, and the second round was with the department director. It really depends on the specific position you're applying for, though. Spectrum really cares about finding people who fit their culture.
