I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Insight Global
Interview
The recruiters and the manager were very straight forward. They ask you your expectations and tell you the reality to see if its agreeable with you. For the most part they are very honest about things, it's more like you need to bring up specific things to them for them to remember it or if it wasnt necessarily apart of their script - which for what i saw, was not malicious

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Insight Global (Austin, TX) in May 2026
Interview
I was contacted by insight global through my linkedin account.
When I was called about the position they asked a few questions on my experience and whether I had a security clearance and a security+ certification which I have. The interviewer who called me said , if you don't hear back from me in two days call me back. Well , I called back , no answer crickets immediately ghosted. I don't know what's wrong with this organization. As many of these contract , companies are doing the same thing , making contact and not following up. Usually when I apply to an insight global position.I get it automated email back saying you didn't make the cut.But this person actually called. Don't do business with these people.
