Candidatei-me online. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Akamai.
Entrevista
I applied online. The interview process started with a call from Akamai recruiter. It was a basic first call with 10 basic technical questions at the end. The second round was on phone with one of the managers. The questions asked were mostly related to what I do and what is the requirement there. The final round was on site. I was interviewed by four people. The technical questions were related to HTTP, HTTPS, DDoS, DNS and working of some basic layer 4 protocols.

Entrevista
I attended an onsite interview where it consist of two rounds, both the senior team and the hiring manager. The senior team members were friendly and welcoming, but the hiring manager was somewhat rude. He repeatedly interrupted the interview by turning off his camera and microphone while interviewing and to take other calls. Following the interview, HR reached out several times, but instead of a formal offer, I was only given a vague response about the possibility of an offer.
