Interview Details – Applied through the company's website. Two weeks later received a over the phone interview which lasted for about 40 min.

Interview Details – The process was an 3 step things with
1. Initial HR screening
2. Followed with 2 rounds of telephonic interview and

Overall the process was quite well and seemed to have right balance (complexity and duration level). I enjoyed going through the interview process

Interview Details – Very long interview process, it took 4 months. Found out later that there was no communication about candidates between interviews so I did not need to spend as much time coming up with new situations to share. 5 interiews, all over the phone. Very little communication as to where the status was in the hiring process. Was told that the position would be filled by June and still hadn't heard back by the beginning of June but got an offer that latter part of the month for the position to start in July.

Negotiation Details – No negotiation. Very little information was given about the way that bonus structure would work and that is the same in role, no one really can communicate what the bonus structure looks like. Also, I was told during the interview process that the position was M-F and the hours were self-directed based on business needs. Once in role I had to work ngihts/weekends and had a set shift I was not allowed to deviate from, had to work additional hours before to make it a 10 hour day. Very little flexibility.

Interview Details – Call with hiring manager and one other technical colleague. Basic enterprise level technical experience questions, mostly security related.
Second call with reporting VP. Basic experience questions.

Interview Details – Interview #1: Applied through school's career website and got an email 3 weeks or so later for a phone call. Was extremely nice, thoroughly explained the role, and answered all questions. Told me he wanted to set me up with the director of team to meet in person. Had interview a week later wih him and director (30 minutes with him to answer all questions [he wanted me to ask lots of questions so make sure o prepare] and then 1 hr with boss lady director who apologized for "grilling" me but I didn't feel like I was being "grilled". Mostly behavioral questions and walk me through your résumé type things.

It didn't work out for me and 1.5 weeks later the guy said I was 1 of 2 finalists but they went with the other. He surprisingly and kindly recommended me to another team looking to fill a similar role.

Interview #2: Got an email from the director of that team the same day I heard my fate and a senior manager reached out to me to set up a phone call. Spoke to her right after the weekend and told me to come in to meet her, another sr manager, and the director the next day. 30 min slots with each - time flew by (a good sign). They had prepared some behavioral questions to ask me. Very easygoing people. I had an extremely positive view of the people, culture, and position after talking to all of them.

Interview Details – Met with three or four people--mostly directors and VPs
