Technical Behavioral

I applied for the NOC Engineer role and the first step was a phone interview where they asked me technical questions about SDH, which is the technology I work with. After passing that, HR called me to come in for an in-person interview at the office. The interviewer was really nice and asked me about what's needed for the job. There were also two of my colleagues there who have more experience than me. The role actually requires less experience, and they felt my background was a good fit.

Confirmed questions6 questions
  • Can you explain the SDH frame structure?
  • What are the SDH alarms like LOS, AIS, RDI?
  • Tell me about Synchronization.
