This took forever, like 8 months and 3 interviews. They said I lacked confidence in my answers, specifically about connecting to an air gapped machine with SSH, taking one answer out of context. Apparently, they don't know what a VPN tunnel is. My bad for wasting my time here. The final round was supposed to be informal but felt chaotic with random questions from a 'senior' engineer. Makes me think the place has high turnover and is incompetent.

The hiring process was pretty simple and focused. The technical interview really hit the mark with questions about application support and troubleshooting. There's a two week wait for background checks, which is pretty standard and they handle it well.

This was a negative experience. It seems like there's no HR for initial screening, and profiles go straight to the interviewers. The interviewer wasn't interested in introducing himself or the company. The call started abruptly with 'Hi I am calling from expediotors, we have your profile, please explain about yourself.' They weren't trying to understand or analyze strengths, just focused on their list of questions and expected specific answers.

- How would you add a new disk to a Linux system?
