I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Tanium
Interview
The process was pretty straightforward and spanned over a month from start to finish. I started with a phone screening that went great and was provided with useful public resources to review. Next was a one-on-one interview with my hiring manager. I then was moved forward into the technical panel interview which was the hardest part of the process. Questions ranged from security to network management but were largely guided around what I had disclosed on my resume. I then had a private one-on-one demo with a TAM and got to see Tanium in a live environment and ask questions about the platform! This then lead to a homework assignment and concluded with two, one-on-one interviews with leadership team members.
Overall, this was hands down the best interview experience I have ever had. The process is fairly long, but it helps you learn a lot about the exciting products and innovations that Tanium provides its customers. It helps to know that Tanium is special for many reasons, but the culture is among the most impressive. People at Tanium realize that skills are something that can be acquired over time, but attitude, drive, and desire to learn are qualities that can’t be taught. Bottom line—being yourself, being proud of your accomplishments, and being honest with who you are will go a long way!

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tanium (Emeryville, CA)
Interview
Lengthy and difficult but very fun. I particularly enjoyed the hypothetical troubleshooting scenarios and the 3-person tech panel. White it was tough, it was one of the most enjoyable and interesting interview processes I've been through in my career.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Tanium
Interview
Around 6-7 interviews with different people (HR, Tech, Sales, Mgmt,) Very good experience overall, nice people, interesting discussions. Advise: prepare as much as you can the tech panel interview (most important one).
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Tanium
Interview
Don’t waste your time. They will push you along the interview process which is 9 rounds and even if you are doing well, will reject you for no apparent reason. During the interview process nobody is there to guide you and if you try to contact the recruiter they will ghost you. They will not offer you feedback after pouring close to 60 hours of time, and the management is condescending. For some reason the interviews felt like they were a witch-hunt, quizzing you till you fail.
