Technical Behavioral Group Presentation

The hiring process was intensive but overall it was very enjoyable and transparent. It included a phone screen with the Technical Recruiter, an onsite interview with a group/panel for 3 hours, a follow-up, reference checks, and an assessment. Overall I was very impressed with Watchguard's employees and recruiting process. Management seemed very approachable, engaged and intelligent. They don't try to trick you and are pretty clear about…

I just graduated college and am looking for help desk or tech support jobs. I applied to Watchguard and the HR/Recruiting Coordinator got in touch to find out when I'm free to interview. I sent over my best times and they responded right away. I had a phone screen with the tech support lead for the department. It was good! We went from basic get-to-know-you questions to actual technical, but pretty simple questions. It went well and the next day, the recruiter let me know I was invited for an on-site interview. It was scheduled for the following week, and I met the team. They were really great and honest people. Sadly, I wasn't chosen a couple of weeks later, and the HR guy told me the team wants me to reapply once I get my CCNA and more experience. I'll definitely go back and reapply! Hope all the same great people are still there!

I got a call for an interview, and they said it would be about 2 hours long. When I got there, they told me I'd do a technical interview for an hour, and if I passed that, I'd do a personal interview for the second hour. The questions were pretty basic stuff like DNS, OSI Model, TCP/IP, VPN, Default Gateway, and MAC.
