I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cisco (Bengaluru) in Jul 2018
Interview
It was a smooth process. There were two rounds one technical and one HR. Technical mostly was about my projects, networking, basic C and few aptitude questions. The panel was quite friendly to speak to, which was very advantageous!
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
First question was about the very project on my resume.
I applied online, heard back with in a week, initial recruiter screening, manager interview, technical panel interview, then manager interview again. Technical was a mix of fundamentals and a couple of pretty challenging ones to know off the top your head.
Very casual, unorganised interview. Interviewers talked for the majority and had no idea who I was before the interview i.e. didnt review my CV or experience. Any questions seemed very odd the cuff and unrelated to the job in question.
Very thorough and detailed. Expect in depth questions and be ready with reasonings. I did find it difficult at some points but overall i did prepare well. If you remember your past experiences and concepts you won’t find it that much difficult.
