I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Akamai
Interview
I was contacted by the internal recruiter and hiring process took around 2-3 weeks. HR was responsive about the status updates. All interviews were conducted online. Stages: HR screening, interview with the Line manager, then presentation with the team of 2-3 people about Akamai product, then more 1 on 1 with higher manager
I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Akamai (Cambridge, MA) in Jan 2023
Interview
The process was a bit drawn out, but understandable. The recruiter and hiring manager both shared that there were over 300 applicants, definitely a tough task to move that needle. The steps I went through were an HR Screen, Interview with the hiring manager and finally a small panel.
