First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Proven IT.
Human Resources
Had a video screening and then an in person interview with two people. The in person part included an office tour and I talked about my roles, how long I was in them, how I could help with the job, and my strategic planning abilities.
- Can you tell me about how long you've been in your past positions and give a story to back that up?
- What's your tenure in your roles and can you tell us more about it?
- In what ways could you contribute to this position?
VCISO
Recruiter called me in for an interview with the vCISO director. Had a proper interview with the vCISO director on site. He quickly admitted to performing illegal (and without consent) background checks. He then asked a few questions that I answered correctly (been in the industry for 15 years) that he thought were wrong. Too many red flags. Q1-Q2 2025; stay away.
- How do you approach discovery for a client's security program?
Engineer
Super positive experience. It was a round-robin style interview with three people. The questions were mainly about critical thinking and how to apply skills to solve technical problems. This was the third/final round, so it was heavily focused on culture fit. I'm still waiting to hear back, so disregard my 'no' on the offer question for now.
- Given a rooster laying an egg on a roof peak, with wind blowing from both directions moderately, 85 degree F ambient temperature, and a clear sunny sky, in which direction would the egg roll considering the wind and other variables?
Network Engineer
It was an in-person, formal interview where I met with the Director of Service and COO. We reviewed my resume and the job requirements for the position. There was a brief Q&A about my IT experience, customer service, troubleshooting skills, and accomplishments. After that, there was a background and drug test. I was called back the following week for an offer letter and a tour of the facility.
- Can you share a time you faced a difficult problem at work and how you handled it?
