I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ultra Mobile (Costa Mesa, CA)
Interview
The interviews themselves were professional and handled well. I liked the team members that I talked to and they all seemed like good folk. The only problems that I ran into were:
1) Uncertainty of what the next interview would entail - each time I set up an interview with HR, the "type" of interview was never mentioned. So I didn't know what to prepare for, being a cultural interview or technical.
2) At the end of the process I didn't receive a response. When I sent a follow up email, I was told that the team was being "deliberate" with their decision (this was a week and a half after the final interview). After more than 2 months of waiting, I think it's safe to say I didn't get the job...
Even an email with no body/text/feedback, but has a subject line that says "No" would have been appreciated, really. It was discouraging to wait so long for a response that never came. I'm sure Ultra Mobile has valid reasons for not providing a response (either time or legal [or maybe they forgot about me?]) to candidates, so I can't really be mad at HR or anyone for following company policy. Anyway, I hope this helps future candidates.

I applied online. I interviewed at Ultra Mobile (Los Angeles, CA) in Sept 2021
Interview
Recruiter is very unprofessional. Blew me off twice. First time said she stuck on the phone. Second time just ghosted it. Dropped several email but no response at all. Bad experience I've ever had.

Interview
Time in between interviews was really spaced out. The overall interview period was about 2 months. After the initial phone screening, I went through 3 interviews and after each I was contacted about 1.5-2 weeks after in between letting me know the next steps. There was no information on the next interview (e.g. technical/behavioral, duration etc.) besides who would be on call. Everyone I interviewed with had good energy and seemed great to work with though.
