Went through the State Farm SWE HireVue and got a follow-up email from a Talent Acquisition Specialist wanting to schedule a 15-minute video call described as HR compliance, not an interview. Trying to figure out what that actually means and whether it signals anything about where I stand in the process.

Are you authorized to work in the US, and do you require visa sponsorship now or in the future?
Are you open to relocation, and what locations are you available to work from?
What are your salary expectations?
When would you be available to start, and what is your current availability?

Interviewed for a security analyst role at State Farm. Pretty short on details but they asked about threat actor knowledge, which is pretty standard for this kind of role.

Which threat actors are you familiar with, and what do you know about them?

“Blanked a little on how deep to go.”
