      Windows Systems Administrator Interview

      May 5, 2014
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Riverwoods, IL
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Discover (Riverwoods, IL) in May 2013

      Interview

      Interview was setup by the HR dept. I met with 3 members of the IT team (Manager, Linux admin, and windows admin). They didn't seem to be on the same page with what they were looking for. They explained that there is a lot of crossover and that you would get the necessary training for the other technologies that you weren't as familiar with, yet they focused as much on my Linux, networking and cisco skills as they did on the windows skills. Left there a bit confused as to what they really wanted. I was told by HR rep who showed me around the campus that would hear from them with an answer, no matter if it was yes or no. I am still waiting for that call...

      Question 1

      cant think of any that was unexpected. From that standpoint, they were pretty straightforward questions. No silly riddles or brain bench type questions
