      Anonymous employee
      Tampa, FL
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Optiv (Tampa, FL) in Jan 2017

      Interview

      The entire interview process was very streamlined and the scheduling times were flexible. Everyone I worked with had clear guidance on the next steps of the process and were professional all the way through. The interviews were fairly difficult, but seemed catered to the individual's knowledge and skill level. Overall the interviews were a pleasant experience that allowed me to display my knowledge and also learn a few things from the interviewers.

      2 May 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Oklahoma City, OK
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Optiv (Oklahoma City, OK) in Apr 2016

      Interview

      The interview process was very straightforward and easy to understand. The talent acquisition team was very friendly and helpful through each phase of the interview. The use of the HireVue platform was unique as well. Being able to showcase yourself and your achievements was a change of pace from the stereotypical board room or "gauntlet" style of interviews. The hiring manager was also very professional and asked thought provoking questions. Overall, I would recommend that any aspiring information security professional consider working with Optiv.
