Candidate-reported interview process
There were 2 rounds in total, focusing mainly on networking concepts like switching and routing. They also emphasized their leadership principles and asked some basic scripting questions.
I applied through LinkedIn, filled out a very long form, and then two guys called me, but after that, they didn't call me anymore. The interview was like an exam on a lot of concepts, like an interrogation. I didn't receive any feedback.
It takes around 3-5 rounds of interviews with different people. They asked deep questions about switching and routing. But it turned out they didn’t have the budget to hire anyone qualified.
