Anonymous employee

Accepted offer

Positive experience

Difficult interview

Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Okta (Sydney) in Oct 2015

Interview

A series of interviews starting with the Hiring Manager who asked me a few technical questions followed by a "Technical Challenge"; which is basically a lab with the solution. After that interview, you will have a call or a face to face chat with the Professional Services Director or VP and then more technical interviews with the team in the US. I had two of them and basically is to prove that you have the experience and skills to perform the job. The final interview was with the HR manager to discuss the salary expectations.

Average interview

Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Okta (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2016

Interview

The interview process from the start was a little off pleasing. The recruiter that I conversed with first was great in explaining the position and what it entailed. The 2nd phone interview was delayed due to my interviewer not being in the office. The day before my 3rd in person interview the initial recruiter I spoke with told me they were going with another candidate.

Average interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Okta (San Francisco, CA) in Nov 2015

Interview

Interview process was four or five rounds with sequentially more senior people, culminating with ceo and coo. Initial phone screens with recruiter, then spoke several times with with higher inflation manager. Subsequent rounds had me meet with other employees on the same team as as well as other business partners. Felt that part of the process was to make sure I felt okta was a good fit for me as much as making sure I was a good fit for them.
