I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Spectrum Brands
Interview
Multiple rounds, starting with HR and moving on to hiring manager, direct counterparts and cross-functional partners ending with the head of division. Very coordinated in terms of having interviews scheduled back to back within the same day instead of spacing out over weeks.

Question 1
Can you describe a time when you had to enlist other teams to solve a business challenge?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Spectrum Brands (Saint Louis, MO) in Jun 2019
Interview
I was brought in for an interview, given a tour of the building, given materials to review, and participated in a basic interview. The interview went well. The recruiter I was working with called me shortly after the interview to tell me that Spectrum Brands was excited about me and thought my interview was great but that they'd already hired someone for the role the day before my interview and that they'd keep me as a "back up".

Question 1
What are some marketing projects you've worked on for other companies?
Thorough interview process with a phone interview, videoconference with Hiring Manager, panel, and on-site. Transparent, engaging, and detailed. Recruiting follow-ups between stages. Difficult to understand company structure, at first. Asking questions helps to understand the evolution.
