I applied online. I interviewed at Security Innovation (Seattle, WA) in Mar 2024
Interview
I applied and was invited to their penetration testing skills assessment site, then upon completing it, a more comprehensive cyber range. My score was satisfactory and I was invited to a do series of zoom interviews on programming, different security domain skills, and culture fit. I appreciated that they had skills tests up front instead of relying on my resume going through some black box matching algorithm, and everyone I spoke to was very friendly. This seems like a strongly positive place to work. When I was rejected, they gave me helpful feedback on what I could improve, which is very valuable to me as someone trying to enter this field.
