Technical Coding System Design Behavioral

We had two rounds in the interview. The first one was about my technical background, how I solve problems, and I talked about projects I'd done before. The second round was with a senior manager, and we chatted about system design, software development stuff, how I debug, and they asked me a couple of coding questions.

They'll ask about things like KYC, their products, sales targets, and your previous experience. Basically, they're looking for good communication, confidence, and someone who's eager to hit their goals.

So the IAM Analyst interview usually starts with a quick chat with HR, then there's a technical test thing to see if you know about identity lifecycle, Active Directory, and IAM tools. After that, you'll probably have one or two more technical or manager interviews where they see how you solve problems, handle incidents, and know about compliance. The last part is just another HR chat about whether you'd fit in, when you can start, and what the pay is.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Can you explain the distinction between authentication and authorization, and how IAM facilitates both?
