First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Spectrum.
Sales Associate
After applying, I got an email to set up a virtual interview really fast. The interview was tough since the virtual program they used wasn't working right, so I could barely hear the interviewer. I tried my volume, a headset, and having her boost her volume, but it didn't help. I did what I could with the sound. She didn't even try to speak up. The interview went as well as could be expected, with mostly situation scenario questions. She mentioned she'd get back to me by the next Monday (it was a Wednesday). Monday came and went. I waited a bit longer and emailed her, but got no response. About two weeks later, I got an email saying I didn't get the job.
- Describe a situation where a customer was difficult and how you handled it.
Sales Associate
Applied online and then heard back from a recruiter via email who asked some questions about my work history and experience, and also had me fill out a personality questionnaire. After that, I had a phone interview which went well, and then they set up an in-store interview. The in-person interview also went well, with basic questions, and then I got scheduled for a second interview with the big boss. This interview also went well, it was only about 15 minutes, and they asked me to sell a product. I sold the triple play, and two days later I got offered the position. So, it took about two weeks of interviewing before I was hired.

Sales Associate
I applied online and got a call from the recruiter the very next day for some prescreen questions. I then took an assessment, and a few days later, I was called to meet the area manager for an interview. The interview went really well. The area manager was impressed with my resume and how I presented myself, asking 'when can I start?'. I received a job offer in less than a week after the interview.
