J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Rackspace Technology (San Antonio, TX)
Entretien
I applied online. 2 days after applying, I got an email for a virtual interview via HireVue. 13 questions. All timed questions. Mix and match video answers, short answer, and multiple choice. Once you finish, the interview gets submitted to the recruiter. It says to allow 7 business days for review.
I got a call from the recruiter about 3 weeks later to setup a 1hr face face interview with 2 team leads and a 1hr technical interview 2 team members. Team lead interview was a personality interview. Technical interview had questions about DNS, RAID, AD, SQL, Windows commands, and Server. No clustering questions (this is important). For the technical interview, I recommend to use the white board. They seemed to like that. A week after my interview, the recruiter called me and said that they decided not to move forward with me because I lacked SQL, Clustering, and AD experience. It was odd that the recruiter said I lack clsutering experience because the technical interview did not include ANY clustering questions. Not sure how they determined that. Be careful with the techincal questions. They like to ask ALOT of follow up questions.

There were 4 stages to mine. Video recording, very small phone screen by recruiter, Technical, and Managerial/Culture. Each seemed fair and I understood the need for each. It is good to have these broken up as a single interview with an entire team can be troublesome as you race against the clock and try to fit everything in to a 1-2 hour time frame. Each section deserves its own time slot.
The recruiter didn't leave huge gaps in between each phase so I stayed engaged with the process. She was also fine with me reaching out if I had any questions.
What is also helpful is checking the status of your application in the online job portal during the beginning of the process.
In the end, I got the offer. I was able to negotiate what I would be comfortable with without being greedy. The benefits are nothing short of excellent either.
Thank you to all of the staff that I worked with during this!

Question 1
Honestly, there were a TON of questions. Personally, I don't want to give away anything. If you are a true Windows Admin and are confident in your skills, you should do fine. I will say this though, BE HONEST. If you don't know something, just say it. Do not try to BS your way through questions. They appreciate honesty and no one wants a know-it-all. Read other people's experience with interviews if it helps. Remember, they want to get to know YOU.
