I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Okta (Bellevue, WA) in Sept 2024
Interview
screening meeting was great, met with hiring manager which was a dry meeting, very cliche questions with no understanding of what he was looking for, was told id be onto the next round and never returned back with info.
Too many interview rounds, overall good follow-up. 3 to 4 interviews plus a final panel interview including a use case. Feedback took too much time and it was not always clear.

Question 1
Questions were targeted on industry and Okta company knowledge, next to sales approach. A use case was the final part of the interview process.
