      Senior Consultant Interview

      20 May 2016
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Red Hat in Mar 2016

      Interview

      Sent my resume to a current employee at Red Hat. He forwarded it onto HR. Received a phone call shortly thereafter to start the process. First call was a basic screen from HR to determine cultural and position fit. They were also extremely open to the heavy amount of travel required. After the screen, I was sent to an online assessment where I was given 90 minutes to cover a variety of topics. This included configuring a VM (similar to a cert exam). After the assessment, I was given a call from a current senior consultant. A little was about doing an additional check on my background, but was primarily for asking them questions. Shortly after, I was flown out to RH (all expenses paid). The entire morning was an interview that consisted of 3 parts. An interview with a manager, a whiteboard scenario, and then a technical presentation. All three are fairly easy as you're given the objectives to prepare well before you are flown out Finally, I had to wait a few weeks for the bench to clear up, but received my offer.

      Senior Consultant Interview

      26 Apr 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Red Hat (London, England) in Mar 2023

      Interview

      The interview process was an initial screening call with a recruiter, which is 30mins, then a technical interview with a senior team member, which goes on for a 1hr, then a panel interview with the consulting team leaders, which goes out for and 1hr 20mins. I got an email about three days after they moved me from a Senior Consultant to a Consultant. Unfortunately, they wouldn't entertain the original benefits we discussed during the screening call. It wasn't very reassuring for a big company such as Red Hat, so I declined the offer and moved on with my day.
