J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 1 jour. J'ai passé un entretien chez Cisco (Bhopal) en août 2024
Entretien
Neutral Experience for a Technical Role
Application:
I applied for this role through an on-campus placement drive. The company visited our campus, and I was shortlisted for the interview rounds based on my resume and academic profile.
Interview Process:
The interview process was scheduled to have three rounds: two technical interviews followed by an HR round. My experience covers the two technical rounds.
Round 1: Technical Interview: The interview started with introductions. We then had a brief discussion about one of the projects on my resume. Following the project discussion, the interviewer gave me a Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) question, which I was able to solve. I later received a call to schedule the second technical round.
Round 2: Deep Dive Technical Interview: This round focused more on core computer science concepts. The interviewer asked detailed questions about C++ STL libraries, including the internal implementation of maps. We also covered fundamentals of computer networking. The interview concluded with questions about various data structures like doubly-linked lists, arrays, and trees.
Overall Impression:
The technical rounds were thorough and challenging. However, I did not receive a call back for the final HR round after the second interview.
First round of interview was basically resume related they tried to ask question about resume make sure you know everything about your resume and a very simple dsa question was asked I think it was palindrome related but I am not really sure
It went perfect and I was intimated about my next round which was done by manage who had been working at cisco for 10 years he was also interested in my resume and talked a lot about it and he also asked me a simple question from dsa and i just wrote it for him, but then he asked me to run the code now, which was not working then and i couldn't solve the error(I believe I typed psuedocode version as I didn't expect me to actually run it, if I had known I would have been more careful)
But after that he said it's okay he just wanted to see my thinking abilitiy and he tolde that he was satisfied.
Then he round was for 10-15 minute and she didn't even ask me anything that could be used to reject me question were are you open to relocate and whether I know about my internship detail
This round was also perfect according to me
And based on what I read earlier this last round was just a formality and they usually don't reject anyone, haha i was outlier I guess.
Final verdict not selected
Mostly ask graphs in code with cisco. and cn fundamentals should be strong, overall they just select one person from whole college ig so ya off campus try would be better.
medium difficulty, there were many many many many questions. the interview was 90 minutes long. it was fun but challenging as well. i will try applying again once i improve.
