Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 1 semana. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Intermedia.
Entrevista
Recruiter reaches out to have a phone interview -- no mention of any technical related interview. When the interview happens, it starts off with your previous experience and then the recruiter expects you to know every single port number associated with every single protocol as well as every single command. Essentially negates experience and expects book knowledge.

Entrevista
I applied online and scheduled an interview within a week. HR didn't describe anything about the company or the role itself. Asking bunch of technical questions and didn't have the courtesy to reply if I get selected for another round or not. This shows company culture or their values. I am glad I didn't get selected for this role. My advise please raise your standard. Thanks and I hope it might help someone who are deciding to make thier decision.

Entrevista
I had a 20-minute phone interview with the HR person who was very to the point. She didn't bother making any conversation to make me comfortable. During the interview she jump straight to technical questions about port numbers for various ports (i.e. What is port for TCP? )
After this, I got an email 5 days after asking to meet the Manager and TL for the team. Had a video conference with the team after. The video quality with the Manager wasn't the best which was a bummer. They asked security questions right away - no informal discussion, no chit-chat. They started asking about System Admin questions a lot and then jumped to ports and different protocols. I didn't hear back from then since then.
Overall very upset to see they had a vacancy for Security Engineer but they kept asking questions related to sysadmin. nothing about security. Makes me wonder about the weird dynamics the team may have.
