Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Optiv.
Operations Manager
It was a smooth, quick, and easy process. I first spoke with a recruiter on the phone, then had a Zoom meeting with managers, and finally another Zoom call with more senior leadership. The whole thing wrapped up in about two weeks, and I got feedback pretty quickly after each stage.

The questions themselves were pretty straightforward. My tip is to try out the practice questions a few times before you start for real, so you get the hang of the app. Once I finished the video interview, the hiring manager got in touch and wanted me to come in for an in-person interview where I met with the hiring manager and some of the team.
