Fortinet has clear early-career entry points through a named Early Talent Program and recurring β€œnew grad” hiring, plus credible signals of mentorship and hands-on project work. The biggest limiter is hiring transparency: candidates can find plenty of anecdotes about stages, but fewer consistent, company-published expectations about timelines and feedback. Pay looks broadly market-aligned in many regions and job families, but early-career pay clarity is uneven across postings.
