Offer followed 2 - 3 weeks later.

Usual technical stuff. The technical phone screen started off pretty simple (basic Unix questions/commands, basic networking) and then when into more depth (performance monitoring, performance tuning, troubleshooting questions).
The face to face interviews w/management were more about assessing previous experiences, especially time when you faced adversity/roadblocks/etc and how you overcame them. These are more to evaluate critical thinking, problem solving, and cultural fit.
The face to face technical interview can be brutal. Again, starts of pretty simply, and then we dove into the weeds pretty quickly with detailed AIX questions around VIO settings and configurations, performance tuning, and troubleshooting/problem solving questions. We switched gears to Red Hat, which followed the same kind of formula. Spent a fair amount of time discussing Satellite server settings/options and automation tools. Very challenging interview, make sure you are prepared!!

Entrevista
I got a cold call from a head hunter asking if I were interested in a position, timing couldn't be better as I was sick of my old job, got hit with furloughs and compensation was terrible.
I got an initial phone interview with the hiring manager, immediately I went thru a routine technical interview, not long after that I got an onsite interview (paid expenses and all), I met with my hiring manager, then with two groups of three people each where they either discussed my resume or hypothetical questions where I was required to come up with generic answers.
I was kept informed by HR of the progress of the progress by HR, the language was kept professional and courteous at all times and the interview appointment started and ended as previously scheduled.
