The Interview and Hiring Process

How we hire

At Ivanti, we do our best to make the hiring process simple and efficient for everyone involved. After all, hiring should be a fun and exciting process! Keep in mind that every department/team/role is different, so the interview process may vary slightly based on position. At Ivanti, you can typically expect a hiring decision within 2-4 weeks. During that time, your recruiter will provide interim updates. See the hiring workflow above to better understand our recruiting lifecycle.

1. Apply to the Position

Review the available jobs on our Careers Page. Apply to any position(s) that match your interests, background and skillset. Don’t forget to include the name of your referrer if you have one! We’ll review your resume and evaluate your qualifications.

2. Meet the Recruiter

During a discussion with the recruiter, you’ll learn more about Ivanti and share information about your background and skills. We want to ensure that role aligns with your interests and expertise.

3. Meet the Hiring Manager

You’re moving forward to speak with the hiring manager! This is a more in-depth overview of your background and experiences; this step may take place as a phone call or a Microsoft Teams video interview. The hiring manager will assess how well your skills and knowledge match the qualifications necessary for the role. The hiring manager interview is usually 30-60 minutes.

4. Meet the Team

Now you’re moving on to connect with the team! Your recruiter will work with you and the team members to schedule the interview(s). During this step, you’ll speak with select individuals from the team/department in either one-on-one meetings or a panel interview. The team interview is usually scheduled for 45-60 minutes. For Technical roles, we may ask for a coding exercise to be completed.

5. Decision Stage

Once we have gotten to know each other, it is important to generate feedback from you and each interviewer. Your recruiter will debrief with you directly, requesting information about your interview experience. The hiring team will meet to discuss your candidacy before making a final decision; this process may take up to a week following the final interview. You can expect the recruiter to follow up and share our feedback with you, regardless of the outcome. 

6. Offer

Good news! Everyone thinks you’d be a great fit on the team! Your recruiter will call you to review the offer details. Ivanti recruiters are there to be an advocate for you, so don’t be afraid to let them know if you require additional context, you have questions or to express concerns. After you’ve made your decision and have verbally accepted, you’ll be sent the official offer document via DocuSign.

7. Prepare to Start

Upon written acceptance via DocuSign, you’ll receive the welcome emails from HR, a background check link, and other pertinent information. Your equipment will be shipped out to you as your start date grows nearer, usually 3-4 days prior.

Preparing for your virtual interview(s)

We all know how nerve-wracking interviewing can be! Below are some tips to help you prepare and make your interview experience with Ivanti as smooth and pleasant as possible.

Business casual attire

Dress in whatever business casual attire makes you feel comfortable. Most people wear collared shirts, but no neck ties.

Microsoft Teams + Wi-Fi Connectivity

We use Teams for both audio and video interviews. You can access Teams through a web browser or by downloading the application to your computer or phone. Check your internet connection ahead of time to make sure it’s fast and reliable enough to support a video meeting with your camera enabled.

Find a Quiet Spot and do a Test Run

Familiarize yourself with Teams and adjust your camera and microphone settings before the meeting so you’ll look and sound your best and avoid delaying the conversation. Set the scene and prevent unwanted distractions by choosing a well-lit space with minimal background noise, so we can focus on the conversation.

Last-minute prep

Re-reading the job description helps you come to the interview with relevant examples, showing how your experience aligns with the specific position you’re interviewing for. If a technical glitch happens, don’t worry! Stay calm and hang in there. Try rejoining the call and loop in your recruiter if you need their support.

For in-Person Interviews

Professional attire may be recommended for interviews that take place in-person at Ivanti. Please be sure to discuss this with your Ivanti recruiter in order to determine the best approach

Fraudulent recruitment warning

To ensure applicants are applying for valid, open positions and not potentially fraudulent listings, we want to ensure all applicants know what to look for. To help avoid confusion, make sure any job posting you’ve found is consistent with the following:

• Ivanti will never ask for payment in any form from an applicant as a condition of employment.
• Ivanti will advertise all vacant positions on our website, Glassdoor and LinkedIn. Any other posted job openings may be fraudulent. It is safest to apply directly on our website.
• We rarely conduct interviews at a physical location, but if we do invite a job applicant for an interview, it will be at one of our 33 office locations. The addresses can be found and verified on ivanti.com.
• Most, if not all, interviews are held remotely via Microsoft Teams. If a different conferencing bridge is sent other than through a valid Ivanti Microsoft Teams account, job seekers should decline the invitation.
• When Ivanti is sending an offer letter, we only send it via DocuSign.
• We encourage anyone who has been fraudulently contacted and offered a job by anyone not affiliated with Ivanti to report this activity to relevant law enforcement agencies.
