Well hiring process is pretty straight forward , HR reaches out and lays out the job description , salary and then give you assessment questions that are reviewed by hiring manager who then interviews you , second interview is with you future colleagues and that’s it .
**Issue - no scope for negotiation or no opportunity to get considered in a senior support role . Salary offered is not competitive

Entrevista
Interview for this joob consisted of 4 steps:
1) Screening by HR agent - nothing specific there, but he said what the salary for this position would be right from the beginning and asked if it was fine with me
2) Video-call interview with engineer. He asked a number of technical questions (see section below). Most of them were CCNA level, no more than that. Just basic understanding
3) Troubleshooting session: a group of engineers set up a video call and mocked a problem with their setup (phones were not registering to CUCM). I was allowed to ask questions and try different workarounds in this simulation. The answer was quite easy (DHCP pool reconfiguration on router)
4) Interview with future management: usual questions like "Why are you looking for a job"/"How do you see yourself in 5 years".

it was three rounds (Tr, Mr, HR). they mainly focused on networks, and anyone coding language. One with good knowledge in coding and computer science topics can easily crack the interviews

The first call was with a recruiter who gave me a quick rundown on the company and role. A follow-up interview was scheduled a week later with the hiring manager but the manager didn’t show. I contacted the recruiter and they said there was a mixup, another call was scheduled a week later. The call with the manager was mostly behavioral based questions and listed 1.5 hours. A follow-up interview was schedule for a week later with Tier 2 and Tier 3 support to ask technical questions. That call last just over an hour. A third interview was scheduled two weeks later with two Tier 1 agents to do more technical questions and that call lasted an hour. All of the calls went really well. I never heard back from the recruiter after that interview and my email/calls were ignored. Outside of the whole process taking over a month I’d have to say it was pleasant. I wish I had more information about why they never contacted me again.
