I went through 3 rounds, starting with HR, then meeting potential colleagues, and finally the VP of Customer Success. It involved standard competency and use case questions. After answering, I proceeded. The recruiter confirmed I was successful and received a verbal offer and a draft contract, with the official one to follow. However, a week passed with no response to emails. A conversation with the VP was vague. After about a month of waiting, I finally got confirmation that the role was no longer available. It was a very unprofessional process; I can only imagine how they treat their employees if this is how they treat candidates.

Behavioral Technical Case
I was contacted by a recruiter via text about a Sr. CSM role at Netskope, though they misspelled the company name initially. The role was initially presented as a Sr. CSM position but then switched to a standard CSM role, which was based in Canada. After that, I interviewed again for the Sr. CSM role. The position was filled internally after 7 rounds of interviews, where my age was also inquired about. I was then informed about a new standard CSM role that would be opening up, but without a definite timeline. We discussed compensation and benefits, and I received a verbal offer on August 4th, confirmed by a congratulatory email from the hiring manager accepting the position. After a total of 3 months and 7 interviews, plus a follow-up assignment, I received an ambiguous rejection, and I had to ask for clarification on my candidacy status. Given this experience, I'm uncertain if I would accept the position if it were offered.

Behavioral Technical
The process felt fair and comfortable. It felt like the company was ready for me and I was ready for it. There were multiple interviews with different leaders, each with unique visions. They all had significant experience in the sector and were pleasant to talk with. We discussed my professional vision and expectations at Netskope, my knowledge of Cloud and security, and my eagerness to learn. It was one of the best interview processes I've had.
