I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at ReliaQuest in Sept 2020
Interview
Conducted a introductory call with one of the recruiters about the role. She did a excellent job at representing and explaining ReliaQuest's culture, values and direction.
As you know, we as IT professionals get contacted by recruiters all the time about opportunities and this was by far the most professional call that I have been a part of. This is a testament of ReliaQuests quality training and good hiring practices.
Thank you for your feedback. We're so glad you had a positive experience during your ReliaQuest interviews, and thank you for the kind words. We are happy to be a resource as you continue your job search, and we wish you the best in your future interviews!

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at ReliaQuest (Tampa, FL) in Feb 2023
Interview
The interview process consisted of 4 stages. The first being a behavioral screen with a recruiter. The second stage was a technical interview with two members of the engineering team. Third phase was a personality and brain-teaser online test. Lastly, the fourth was a call with two members of leadership. The technical interview was not super difficult assuming you know some of the basics of Linux and networking. Overall, this was one of the most professional and high quality interview pipelines I have ever been through. The recruiter la was great to work with!
