I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Comcast (Sunnyvale, CA) in June 2015
Interview
Phone screen with the hiring manager, followed a few days later by an on-site interview with a succession of paired team members. They asked me about my general experience, software tools I was familiar with. There was one instance of white-board programming.

Question 1
1) Hiring manager asked me how I would troubleshoot apparently random set-top software reboots, what techniques and tools I would use to gather more info on the problem and narrow down the list of causes.
2) Team member asked me to write code to initialize a two-dimensional array to a sequence of integers.
3) A second assignment at the same location involved another round of interviews and completing timed coding challenges in C and Python.
phone screening was easy because the recruiter has no idea about computer science...I wish recruiters can more knowledgeable...interview is overall easy. prepare for behavioral questions that can get tricky sometimes
