7,210 consulting technical manager interview questions shared by candidates

Round 1 was split into 20 apti stuff , 10 problem solving stuff and 20 tech stuff, which further can be drilled down as 10 from Micropocessors , Networking etc and rest 10 from usual programming on C , C++ and Java Round 2 was basic technical round where in I was asked about the OSI Layers , Difference between routing and switching , MAC Addr and IP Addr , and explain the full process of how a packet is moved from source to destination including DNS Lookup , Routing protocols that I would suggest etc etc . I personally suggest "Computer Networking A top down approach" 6th Edition by Kurose and Ross would be the best book . Round 3 was the most rigorous HR round I have ever been in ; The panel consisted of 2 men ; Since this is for a role that Cisco would use to face a customer mostly they were all management oriented questions , The interviewer asked me a few tech questions until I ran out of answers and asked me what would I do If the same thing happens on a presentation with the customer . I was not confident enough to tell him I would ask some time and get back with the answers ASAP . The HR was just expecting a confident reply from me . so what I would suggest is to reply confidently even if you are with the wrong answer tell him that I am not sure of this answer but I will get back with the right ones ASAP . Never go for a HR round unexpectedly , stay cool , know when your turn would probably come and never panic or get nervous in an HR round . All your efforts on clearing the first few rounds would go to drain if you flunk in the Final HR Round . So whatever condition you are get back to normal , keep smiling & be confident and you can easily crack Cisco Systems for sure .. All the best ..!!

The three part interview day was as expected, technical, case study, and then Partner interview. The Partner asked me several times why I was looking to leave my current consulting job (at another firm) after four years.
