Behavioral Technical
The interview process was a bit rough. Both interviewers were late for the first meeting. I thought I had the job, but then I was ghosted for a month before being told they chose someone else. A month later, they contacted me about an Account Executive role, which fit my background better. I joined that meeting hoping for a new opportunity, but they told me there wasn't an opening at the moment and then just went on and on about the role without giving a clear answer. It was a really frustrating and unpleasant experience overall.

Technical Behavioral
They totally avoided "stump the chump" questions and went for scenario-based questions instead. The interviewers, two of them, pretended to be a SIEM and gave me different scenarios. The goal was to see how I'd think through things step-by-step, as if I were using the SIEM live, and I could use Google/OSINT.

- What logs can I access?
- Did someone else already start investigating this, or am I the first one?

Behavioral Technical
The interview started with quick intros from the two interviewers, who then asked about my background. It then moved straight into an hour of scenario-based questions. They didn't provide any help and asked a lot of different questions related to the original scenarios. At one point, they told me I was "thinking too hard."
Confirmed questions3 questions
- For a client in Rhode Island, how would you investigate a foreign IP from Greece that successfully connected?
- How would you tell if an email was phishing if a client opened a .DOCM file and later thought the email was suspicious?
- Building on the previous questions, how would you investigate an internal IP connecting to an external IP known for malicious activity, according to Intel reports?

Behavioral Technical Case
The people I spoke with during the interview process were really friendly and clearly loved their jobs at NuHarbor. They took the time to answer all my questions, making the whole experience enjoyable. The only downside was at the end when I was told I didn't get the job because of things that the interviewers themselves had pointed out as my strengths. That was pretty weird and confusing. But I do wish them the best in finding the right person.
