The interview was a series of Zoom interviews. To start with, the job posting I applied to was very generic. Turns out, it was working in Public Sector for a position totally new to Akamai. It would have helped a lot if they had put that in description versus revealing this at the time of the interview. It may have saved everyone a lot of time. A couple of the people I interviewed with I would have had no interaction with on the job whatsoever. They were confused on why they were even interviewing me. They could have drained the pool to about 2 - 3 people. The process itself wasn't terrible but clearly Akamai was doing what I like to call "exploratory interviews" trying to figure out what they were looking for in a candidate vs figuring out if the candidate had what they want. For a big, established powerhouse company like Akamai, I'd expect them to be more concise and direct. My experience during this process was something I would expect from a ragtag start-up. The recruiter while being very friendly and giving good feedback, could have also been more responsive post-interview. The call to give me the bad news was a nice touch and probably bumped the score up from negative to neutral. Especially after I interviewed via Zoom for nearly 5 hours straight. They reposted position again yesterday so I take it noone was a fit. I don't mind a company being selective, I respect it. But they reposted with the same lack of disclosure of the public sector aspect of the job. That is just sloppy and careless. They have to do better.
