The whole hiring process took about 2 months. It took me about two weeks to get an interview after applying. It's a good paying job with OT opportunities and great benefits. You're on probation for your first year, so don't mess up.

So the process took a while, like weeks to get an interview set up. They offered one time, in the middle of the day, which was a bit inconvenient but they said to let them know if it didn't work. The interview was a group interview with people from the department, and it was all direct questions about the job. After that, I didn't hear back for over two weeks. Overall, it felt like a slow process.

After I submitted my application, I got contacted really fast saying I fit the requirements. About 2 weeks later, the Dept Head called me for a 30-minute phone interview. Then, 2 weeks after that, I went in for an in-person interview. There were 3 interviewers and they asked 12 questions in a round-robin style, which felt pretty comfortable. Some of the questions required me to demonstrate my skills on the computer. They then asked me to stay an extra hour to meet with the project manager. This last interview had 5 people, and 2 of them asked questions, and it was more specialized for the job.

Behavioral Technical

We talked about how I'd deal with difficult clients and resolve their issues. For a computer not turning on, my approach would be to follow standard hardware troubleshooting steps like checking power, internals, and externals. I'd also listen to the client's concerns. If that didn't work, I'd escalate to my manager and keep the client informed about their computer's status.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Describe your process for troubleshooting a computer that won't power on.
  • What strategies would you employ when dealing with a challenging client and resolving their technical problems?
  • What steps would you take if the standard hardware checks don't resolve an issue with a client's computer not starting up?
