I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Fortinet (Dallas, TX) in Nov 2022
Interview
What a joke. I was given an initial screening by a recruiter who makes sure all the boxes are checked and then the hiring manager sends a personality assessment. Even though it is mentioned that the personality test is one aspect of the hiring process, if you don’t get a “favorable score” then the hiring manager won’t even talk to you. I have experience in this vertical, multiple years experience in sales, and higher education…yet my competence was measured by a generic personality test. Truly haven’t had one of those sent to me as a deciding factor in my competence level since I was a receptionist in college. It’s truly pathetic and quite frankly, shows me that I’ve dodged a bullet and that the company prefers sheep over strategic business-minded sales reps.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Fortinet (Bengaluru) in Feb 2025
