If you are selected to move forward to interview, you will be contacted by a member of the Talent Acquisition team. A candidate will typically go through three rounds of interviews. The first interview is usually conducted via phone or video with a member of the Talent Acquisition team. During the second interview, you’ll have a chance to chat with a member of the hiring team over the phone. This conversation is usually more technical and focuses on day-to-day responsibilities of the role. The final interview is usually onsite either at our world headquarters in Cary, North Carolina, or at one of our many regional offices around the world. We’ll ask questions about technical competencies, discuss values alignment to our organization and conduct role-based assessments. Please be aware that the interview process may vary depending on specific roles, teams and requirements.

We embrace individuality, authenticity and personal style. If you are preparing for an interview, we recommend business casual attire. However, please use your discretion and come dressed in what you feel most comfortable in for an interview.
