Interview process was smooth.
First interview with HR, then Head of Department and finally a case study with the HoD.
Everyone was very welcoming and nice throughout the interview process giving feedback.

Pretty straightforward, Initial recruiter screening followed by interview with HR asking regarding my experience, behavior questions and how I handle various situations with clients. they shared that after acquisition the company is in a bit of a chaos so they need someone who is ok with that.

I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Darktrace in Jan 2025
Interview
Got rejected after the HR screening. HR screening felt very transactional, interviewer was just asking the standard, cliche questions without really trying to connect with me. I saw some of the horrendous reviews about Darktrace before the interview and made sure to get the interviewer's perspective on cultural challenges inside Darktrace. Interviewer gave an answer that didn't really make sense and was without substance.
One of my least pleasant interviews so far I would say.

Question 1
Why motivates you to join a cyber security company?
