I applied online. I interviewed at World Wide Technology (Edwardsville, IL) in Jun 2026
Interview
First you'll have a ~20 minute phone call interview with a recruiter about the company, job, and your background.
Second is the behavioral interview and knowledge check. This will be onsite with Production Supervisors
Lastly, is the onsite technical interview. This will be with Production Supervisors again. You'll be given instructions to follow for setting up a switch (manual boot, copy boot image from flash drive and change auto boot to that image, setup VLANs and subnet, setup account with secret and SSH). It is a 40 minute test and you can't use the internet to look things up. You'll have to use SecureCRT for connecting to the switch. The switch was a Cisco C1000. While a technician will be in the interview, they can't really help you but will only tell you what you are doing wrong.

Interview
I went through multiple rounds of interviews with WWT for a leadership role and invested significant time speaking with different stakeholders across the organization. The interviewers were professional, knowledgeable, and I appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the role, team, and company.
However, the overall candidate experience was challenging due to a lack of clarity and consistency throughout the process. At different stages, I received strong signals that my background and experience were aligned with what WWT was looking for, including continued engagement through multiple interview rounds. The final outcome and communication did not seem consistent with those earlier conversations, which left me unclear about the evaluation criteria and what the organization ultimately prioritized.
I also felt that WWT may have missed an opportunity to bring in a candidate with a different perspective and a strong track record of driving enterprise transformation, AI adoption, and technology modernization. While WWT is clearly investing in cutting-edge technologies and client solutions, the interview process felt somewhat traditional in its approach and could benefit from more emphasis on diverse experiences, innovation mindset, and the broader business impact a candidate can bring.
For senior-level candidates, investing significant time in multiple rounds requires a strong level of communication and transparency. Providing clearer expectations, consistent feedback, and a more structured decision process would create a much stronger candidate experience.
Advice to management: Continue building an innovative technology culture by also evolving the candidate experience, ensuring that strong leaders with diverse perspectives feel understood, valued, and evaluated consistently throughout the process.
