Process

I got in touch with Arista through a career fair.

Initially, they emailed me asking for my transcript and updated resume.

  1. For the first round of screening, I was asked to come on-site. There, I had to compile, debug, and write pseudocode for simple C/C++ programs. This round could also be done via phone. Most of the questions asked are mentioned here. It was a one-hour interview.

  2. Next were two back-to-back one-hour interviews with different interviewers. The first interview was very similar to the initial screening round. In the second interview, I was asked to write code on a whiteboard to convert C++ code to C.
