Hi guys, I have been reading a lot of post regarding Okta and how bad the interview process went for many of people here. I am also currently in the interview phase with Okta for the Solutions Engineer role in UK and recently had my tech challenge interview, which went well(feedback at the end of the interview was very positive) However, I heard that until this stage for many folks it went great but the final stage they failed. Which got me worried now as well… Can anyone share their experience and provide some tipps? I am currently waiting for the recruiter to get back to me to tell me about the next steps regarding the meetings with Sales member and other departments. #engineer #interview #it
Same here too, all the stages went well with good feedbacks but no update since even after emailing the recruiter.
I had to email the recruiter as well but got a reply straight and after a day the Feedback/next steps call. Hope you got a reply by now as well.
Their recruiters s*ck!
How did the rest of the process go?
I had two of the interviews, one with someone from sales and second one more technical. Awaiting two more interviews next week. So far I had a good feeling but will only know if I get an offer.
Op how did it go?
Went really well. Got an offer. After the 4 interviews I had another with the director and then the final feedback as well as the offer talk. It is a long process but worth doing it.
Congrats on the offer, can you share TC?
110k£ + car allowance + RSU
Did you join the commercial or enterprise team? Also what level of experience did you have to get offered this TC? Thanks
OP can you share details of the tech challenge? What does it entail of?
You have to choose at least 4 but the more you choose the better. Installing domain controller adding users to ad working with group policy. OnPremise integration with AD. Adding okta Interface to your own website. Adding custom application to Okta to do SSO. SSH Management. If you good with building webpages, you will have enough I interesting task to do. Some coding task you can chose from to show your coding skills. There is actually an older version online (mock tech challenge) try to find it otherwise dm me, I might still have the link.
OP, do you have this link still?
OP, if you still have the link could you share it with me?
Answered on ur InMail
Thank you!
OP, do you still know if Okta is hiring for solutions engineers in the US?
They is.
Any tips on getting an interview/offer? I cold applied yesterday and am wondering what the timeline looks like.
As a solutions engineer you’ll be working for the Customer First team, run by Eric Kelleher, former Salesforce during their high growth years and a ball buster. His entire management team is the same. Just know what you’re getting into.
Can you share Base salary and bonus and RSU for this solution engineer role ?
Did you get the role? And still have tech challenge handy?
SE as in sales engineer or software engineer?
Solutions Engineer* sorry I should have been clear on that, just edited.
You’ll be fine. Don’t stress.
