      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at ReliaQuest (Tampa, FL) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      I applied for both a Security Engineer and Security Analyst position. About 2 weeks after applying, I was contacted by a recruiter from their Tampa, FL office via email to setup the first interview over the phone. After that was a video interview with the same recruiter that was mostly a general interview with a couple technical questions. The third interview was a phone call with two members of the engineering team asking nothing but technical questions. The fourth interview was a phone call with administrative employees that asked cultural and behavioral type questions. After that interview, I completed a personality assessment online that took about two hours. I was then offered a final interview. It was a video interview with two members of management at the Las Vegas office. Even though I didn't receive an offer and the interview process was very long (all of this over 2 months), everyone along the way was very kind and helpful

      Interview

      STAR based interview with some common behavioural interview questions thrown in. Questions can easily be found online by googling "common STAR interview questions". The behavioural type questions are all about how you would deal with issues with coworkers, how to resolve poor reviews from a customer, how to tackle issues you have no experience with and so on.

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ReliaQuest (Tampa, FL) in Feb 2023

      Interview

      The interview process consisted of 4 stages. The first being a behavioral screen with a recruiter. The second stage was a technical interview with two members of the engineering team. Third phase was a personality and brain-teaser online test. Lastly, the fourth was a call with two members of leadership. The technical interview was not super difficult assuming you know some of the basics of Linux and networking. Overall, this was one of the most professional and high quality interview pipelines I have ever been through. The recruiter la was great to work with!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Layers of the OSI model? How would I find a file on Linux? How would you show the last 10 lines of a file in Linux? How would you parse a file in Linux for a specific phrase? I was asked a troubleshooting question about read, write, execute permissions on a file and how to fix the issue. Explain TCP handshake like I am five. What type of devices would you want to ingest logs from?
