I applied in-person. I interviewed at Cisco (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
It was a very normal, incredibly typically interview with absolutely and unequivocally nothing out of the ordinary. It was a pleasant, and satisfactory interview process. I only got through one round, but that round was fine.
It was nice, informative. One should prepare using all resources. They will judge your understanding based on everything that you ever demonstrated in the process, so be aware of everything you said or mentioned.
It was basically deep dive into resume and some questions on Dsa. The overall experience was good. There were 4 rounds in total. Be familiar with basics of the language that you primarily use.
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cisco (Bengaluru)
Interview
3 rounds. 2 tech and 1 HR. The tech rounds lasted 1 hr 15 means each. HR was just formality for me though some had proper HR rounds. They wanna see how you work out solns with them over the actual one.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They were curious on knowing why did you do your projects over what you did.
