I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fortinet in Jan 2020
Interview
Internal personal at Fortinet recommended I apply for the role. Recruitment team one week later reached out that they would consider me for the role and I would be contacted by one of the Senior Recruitment Team members. We fixed a time and I was waiting for his first phone interview. He was 15 minutes late and rushed through a series of standard questions about myself and how I could fit into the role. He said a deeper phone call over one hour with himself would be required. Next week again he called me 10 minutes late and for first 10 minutes complained to me how over worked he is, this is not as a contractor what he expected, his management is not supportive ect. I could sense his frustration on the call and offered my listening ear. I would say after this was the worst experience of an interviewer I've ever had. Everything was questioned, just a very poor sense of dealing with people. After 30 minutes, I suggested we stop as I was not really interested in dealing with him or Fortinet anymore. Ill stick with Palo Alto company and products.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Fortinet
Interview
Reached out to by recruiter and submited resume. Heard back within a week and interview set up with hiring manager. After going through background and my security knowledge I was scheduled for calls with several other VP level individuals both technical and sales. Whole process was very efficent and Fortinet cared more about what strategies I would bring to the role than overall background. Accepted the offer within 3 weeks of the first call.

The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Fortinet in Sep 2019
Interview
I applied online (LinkedIn that led me to the career page of the company site). A couple of days later, the CSR manager set up an interview. I was warned in the email to prepare for it will be an hour and a half long. The interview itself was ran by three different people: the CSR manager, another CSR manager from Canada and a CSR lead. I honestly thought I killed this interview. Not only because I certainly had the experience for it, but I personally believed I was able to answer each and every question with confidence (and that doesn’t happen often with me). The CSR lead herself also said that my interview alone went very smoothly. At this point, I really don’t know why I didn’t get an offer.
