      Solutions Enginner Interview

      May 8, 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Mateo, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Verkada (San Mateo, CA) in Apr 2024

      Interview

      My experience here is the same as others have said. There are 4 stages: Recruiter Screening, two 30 minute technical screenings, and finally an on site visit to HQ where you are required to present before a panel, complete an additional technical screening, and interview individually with 3-5 people over about 5 hours. My experience was excellent until after I completed the headquarters visit. Verkada made no attempts to inform me that I was no longer being considered and I needed to track that answer down myself. After traveling out of state (I want to note that they do cover your flight and hotel, the rest including transportation is out of pocket) and preparing a presentation I found this disrespectful to not give a timely response. After I chased down a final answer I informed that I was ruled out due to a lack of networking experience. That is completely fine, almost all of the team has 5+ years of network experience. However I made it clear that my background is not network engineering, and that would have been evident from a read through of my resume. I would describe my experience as positive overall with only the two pain points, unfortunately they were not small things, and that’s why I’ve knocked it down to neutral. If your background is in network engineering it might be a wonderful place to work.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They are looking for by the book explanations rather than practical examples in most cases. Even if your background is networking I would recommend brushing up on your textbooks. Topics I would recommend studying: DNS (High Level) DHCP and DHCP Relay (Get deeper here) NAT (High Level) VLANs (Deep, understand L2 & L3 switching) TCP 3 way handshake (I was asked about this multiple times) HTTPS Differences between Asymetric and Symetric encryption
