I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Comcast (Rockville, MD) in Mar 2012
Interview
Expect to go thru several interviews and potentially a open house if there are multiple openings at the time. Typically there is a new hire class for the region monthly which means there is turnover. Come prepared after having done an analysis of the company with questions typed if necessary in case you are the person who becomes extremely nervous during interview. Make sure that you ask questions or you will not proceed any further, trust me!

I applied online. I interviewed at Comcast (Deptford Township, NJ) in Sep 2021
Interview
First,Interviewed by a Comcast contractor via telephone. Second interview was via Microsoft Chat room, where one of the interviewers interviewed me w/o showing her face on the screen, said she was camera shy! Extremely unprofessional. After working Direct Sales and earning over 100,000 a year and accolades from previous sales positions. I am told I am not qualified!! I would say save yourself the time to apply. Job entails door to door sales in rain, sleet, snow, freezing cold and heat waves. A bit dangerous for women, as you will be walking in pitch black alone!!
