Palo Alto Networks Interviews Employee Reviews
What did you like most about the interview process?
I was able to meet with peers, leaders and other departments before being hired.
Review from Customer Support Dept
My interview process was fairly easy. I only met with a few people and it went well (over 6 years ago). I do think our current candidates go through a rigorous interview process today.
the interviewers were flexible and they did understand that I was almost finishing another hiring process for a competitor
Review from Sales Dept
Super day was on campus
Review from Engineering Dept
I appreciated that the interview process included a mix of coding problems and questions regarding past project experience. I liked that they didn't just spend the entire interview doing coding questions.
technical portion coupled with normal interview
Review from Engineering Dept
I started as a contractor and then converted to FTE - it was great.
Review from HR Dept
Our interview process is based on clearly defined success metrics for the role. The questions are standardized to ensure relevance and fairness across candidates.
everyone was really good and communicating professionally,
The communication with my recruiter throughout the interview process.
I liked when we used to not ask leetcode esque questions for new grad and intern interviews. I also liked when we were interviewing for specific teams. I worry we are moving away from that a bit
Review from Engineering Dept
It was expedited in my case which demonstrated that they valued my candidacy. It was organized except for a couple times when the recruiter (who was new) seemed to be struggling to connect me with the appropriate person/information
Review from Sales Dept
The interview teams are looking for a team mate. Regardless of how technical an interview is - there is good dialogue and genuine interest in making the interview a positive experience.
Review from HR Dept
communication from recruiting team. The recruiting team cares about what they do.
Review from HR Dept

Review from Engineering Dept
well orgnized with less disruption
Review from IT Dept
not overly difficult interview phases, fair
Tailored approach in hiring and focusing on the zeal to work rather than asking redundant things.
I was able to meet a variety of people and women
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Need to get a person through in 6 weeks or less. It took many monthts.
Don't do 8 interviews with someone. It's unfair on there time and you should know in 4 maximum if the person is right or not.
Review from Marketing Dept
Too much beaurocracy. We are missing out on great talent
It is to long, to many interviews
Have more of a structure. Random people get chosen to interview sometimes, and there's little structure or prep
Review from IT Dept
faster response and less ppl interview, I had 8 ppl...this takes too long
Review from Sales Dept
