      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Forcepoint (Austin, TX) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      First phone and then in person. Very straight forward. Phone was basic technical, in person was harder technical questions and then management interview with IT Director. After interviewing I was told to wait a week for an answer. I got a call the next day and started the process to start working within two weeks.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Look up default Security questions on the internet and they will be very close. Know basic networking and how to configure firewalls. Know how to work with Qradar, and nessus.
