basic networking IT questions, only one interview. Was measuring level of enthusiasm to learn more about security and went through resume on past job experiences and education. They asked about experience with different kinds of software/infrastructure.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
describe the OSI model difference between TCP and UDP
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at W@tchtower (Fairfax, VA) in Nov 2017
Interview
Email exchange with HR. PCAP analysis pre-screen test. In person interview w/ 2 people (got grilled for like an hour on technical questions, general network questions and broad security questions). Had another in person PCAP analysis after getting grilled to make sure I didn't cheat on the prescreen assessment... hope you know wireshark well! Hiring managers were friendly.
I honestly think it was way too deep for a tier 1 position they advertised as an internship. Sounded like they wanted a t2 or t3 analyst.
I was offered a position as a soc analyst II for some reason.
Declined offer because it was too low of a wage and non negotiable.

Question 1
Common ports, common security terms, how to use wireshark, etc...
