I applied online through company site for a Regional Networking Engineer position in Morocco. The process was thorough and professional, consisting of three interview rounds over roughly one month, followed by a compensation discussion and offer stage.
The first round was a technical and experience-based interview with the hiring manager, covering networking fundamentals, routing and switching, network design, troubleshooting methodology, and past project experience. Expect questions across both IT and OT/industrial networking topics given the terminal environment, including wireless, redundancy mechanisms, and multi-vendor exposure.
The second round was with senior IT leadership and focused less on deep technical drilling and more on business judgment, ways of working, standardization thinking, stakeholder communication, and fit within the regional organization. Behavioral questions and scenario-based discussions were the core of it.
The final round was a conversational HR interview with regional HR and site leadership, covering motivation, relocation readiness, notice period, and cultural fit with the company values.
After the final round there was a waiting period with limited communication, followed by a call from the recruitment team to collect current compensation details, then a verbal confirmation and a formal offer letter. The post-interview phase moved slower than expected, so patience and polite follow-ups help. The recruiting team was responsive and supportive once the offer stage began.
Advice for candidates: prepare seriously on both enterprise networking and industrial/OT concepts, know the port and terminal operations context at a high level, have concrete examples of projects and incidents you owned, and be ready for values-based behavioral questions. Honest framing of what you know and don't know was well received.
