Question 1
Explain a time when you had to orchestrate your v-team to win a deal in xyz account?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Palo Alto Networks (Los Angeles, CA) in Nov 2024
Interview
The interview process felt disjointed, with long gaps followed by sudden activity, making it hard to gauge the company’s urgency. Communication was inconsistent, and different interviewers seemed misaligned, creating a sense of internal disconnect. The lack of a clear timeline and decision-making process could be a red flag for candidates, raising concerns about broader operational efficiency. While the company is a leader in cybersecurity, a more structured hiring experience would better reflect its reputation and help attract top talent.
