Interview - 17 July

Any update on PDC or LOI mail?

Hi everyone, I interviewed for the Software Automation Trainee (Graduate Apprentice) role on 9 July and haven’t received any update yet. Is anyone else from the same interview batch still waiting? If you interviewed on 9 July and received an offer, rejection, or any HR update, I’d appreciate it if you could share your status. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I recently interviewed for the Consulting Engineer – Wireless role. I completed my managerial round on July 8, but I haven't received any update from HR yet.

I understand that hiring timelines can vary, but I was wondering if anyone who has gone through this process could share their experience. How long did it take for you to receive feedback or the next update after the managerial round?

Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

In manufacturing with 14 sites across three countries. MPLS since before I was here. Renewal quote landed last week about 30 percent up on the last one with no change in what we get and the account manager said something about capacity costs that I did not find convincing. 

Meanwhile, the actual traffic pattern has completely changed but not the circuits. Everything is going to M365 and a couple of SaaS things now such that we are hauling cloud traffic across the private network to break out centrally, which is the least sensible possible route for it. The MPLS is doing a great job of carrying traffic to a datacentre that hosts progressively less every year. 

I know where this ends up: SD-WAN, broadband and LTE at the smaller sites, keep something private where the two plants that talk to each other need it. What I don't have a feel for is the security side. Right now security happens at the central breakout. If every site breaks out locally then either I put a box at every site or I do the inspection in the cloud, and I've not run either. 

For the people who have done this migration, what did you underestimate? Not looking for a vendor pitch, more interested in what went wrong.

I’m looking for a tool that supports multiple vendor hardware for tracking and reporting on cve’s that have been released. Rapid7 and Tenable came up on my radar. Would there be others to consider?
