There was a phone and in-person interview with TekSystems and then subsequent phone and in-person interviews with the company I was contracted to. TekSystems provided coaching ahead of the interview with the customer.

Entrevista
I appeared for a face-to-face interview with TEK and a phone interview with their ultimate client. The client told me that I was the only one of the candidates sent his way by TEK whom he would even consider hiring. He phoned TEK within 30 minutes and approved the hire.

No real questions of substance with TEK. TEK is an 8A machine in essence and really gave me the impression they would not make a hire unless I was a "brotha." (This is the government side of TEK.) Fortunately they submitted me to the client and as I said above the hire was made less a face-to-face interview.

Entrevista
The recruiting process felt rushed and disorganized. The job I was initially pitched did not match the role I interviewed for, and communication around responsibilities and expectations was vague. I was eventually offered a contract position, but not for the role I interviewed for, and I was pressured to accept verbally immediately before seeing anything in writing. I actually thought this was a scam until I was given a Teksystems login to onboard. The paperwork I was given lacked any details about the job itself. I was never even told what the job title was.
When I hesitated because this whole process was sketchy and I also had concerns about the contract and how it might conflict with my existing work, I was told there would be “negative consequences” if I didn’t sign the contract which felt threatening and unprofessional. I decided to walk.
Met with recruiter and account manager, schedule two rounds of interview with the end client and received an offer to work in a contract position. After the interviews, the recruiter worked with me to explain the process and next steps.
