it’s the trusted kernel. do you not know what that is? T2 firmware basically. do you not know what the architecture is? you have some research to do. i mean i don’t work for apple but i would say first and foremost know the ins and outs of bootup. and then know something like crypto as you say.

At what stage are you now precisely? Done with virtual onsite? Or about to attend the onsite? Or waiting for pre-screen results?
