      Chicago, IL
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Equinix (Chicago, IL) in May 2014

      Interview

      Two phone interviews, followed up with a face to face interview at their site. Phone interview consisted of the basics of networks, the seven layer OSI model, etc. Second phone interview was to go over compensation expectations, and availability of a face to face interview. On site interview was conducted by the site supervisor. Many questions about configuration of network equipment and cable terminations (both fiber and copper) We spoke about cable certifications and the different testing methods. After being offered the position there was a background check. NOTE: most extensive background check I've ever had done.

      Significant questions about network equipment and configurations, and how to physically connect to the equipment, detailed questions about exactly how to setup a laptop to do console work,
