Palo Alto Networks OA Format and Platform

The Palo Alto Networks online assessment is delivered through a proctored online platform, most commonly HackerRank. Candidates receive the OA link by email after passing an initial resume review. The coding section typically contains 2 to 3 algorithmic problems with a 70 to 110 minute time limit.

Some Palo Alto Networks teams include an additional work simulation section that tests judgment and decision-making rather than coding ability. This section is not present for all roles. Check the LeakCode question database filtered by role type to see what past candidates for your specific role reported.
