First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Frontier.
Network Engineer
The interview process felt subtle, with questions that were neither too difficult nor too simple. Overall, it went well. The majority of the questions focused on CCNA material, alongside some HR-related inquiries like asking about the ideal work environment for peak productivity. I received feedback within a week.
- Can you tell me about yourself?
- In your opinion, what type of environment is best suited for achieving maximum productivity?
- Could you answer some typical networking questions, for example, comparing TCP/IP and OSI models?
Network Engineer
The interview process is pretty standard. First, you'll need to submit a cover letter and resume online. After that, they'll call you to schedule an interview with people who are currently working in or managing the role you're interested in. They aim to be understanding, knowing that Network Engineering isn't a formal degree program like Civil or Mechanical Engineering. Since the job heavily involves using computer software, they'll give you a hands-on trial with their applications to see how you handle them. They also asked about my past experiences, like the courses I completed and any groups I was part of.
- Can you walk me through your experience with our computer-based programs, specifically CadTel, Spatial Engineer, and M6?
- Could you give me a basic test on your computer-based programs, CadTel, Spatial Engineer, and M6?
Network Engineer
The interview process was pretty standard. We started with a one-on-one to get the basics down. Then, two other people hopped on for a round-robin of technical questions, which wasn't too bad if you know your stuff. After that, there was a second interview over the phone. This call was mostly the manager explaining the job and what's expected, not really a Q&A. I did manage to ask a few direct questions about the company culture and specifics of the role.
- What makes you want to join our company?
