DES Information Security Consultant at State of Arizona
No Offer – Interviewed in Phoenix, AZ Aug 2012 – Reviewed Sep 4, 2012
Interview Details – Interviewed with CISO for DES--Dept of Econonic Security for contract position, possibly later hire (but not part of the process today). One hour. Looking for God and Apple Pie. Pay is good for market--but what they are asking for is a lot--excessively so even in today's market where this seems to be the normal. The environment there is not pleasant--dark and dreary and run down.
Interview Question – Nothing particularly hard or unexpected--expect to be thoroughly interviewed, and go through the slow process whether or not they already have someone in mind. Go by the book and bureacracy is the motto here. Answer Question
