      Security Analyst Interview

      Aug 12, 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Delft
      Accepted offer
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Riscure (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      I applied for a security analyst position where the job posting said "0-3 years experience". During the recruiter interview, he said there was a single opening in an office of 11 people, and it was to fill the position of an experienced analyst who was leaving. I asked why the job posting was explictly junior if they were replacing someone experienced. He revealed that 2 weeks prior, the same posting had advertised a senior position. He said they had found a couple of qualified candidates but could not meet their salary requirements, so they were "playing with the job posting". After the recruiter interview, I was sent a link to 3 "crackme" binaries, all for different architectures. Completing these requires significant prior experience and tooling. Advice to recruiters: be honest about the requirements in your job postings.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why do you want to work as a security analyst?
      Answer question
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Riscure (Delft)

      Interview

      1 campus interview, 2 on site interviews, and 1 final interview with CTO. Campus interview was just getting to know some of the engineers and see if I was interested. The two on site interviews where more intense. Very technical and was finished off with an exam. One exam was software based. Was given a piece of code dealing with security, and had to find a bug with which it can be broken. Second exam was more challenging. Was given a schematic of a hardware setup, and had to find a way to break a boot loader. No security experience is necessary, but just a sharp mind to figure it out.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Hardest question was definitely breaking the boot loader.
