Software Engineer Interview Experience - Bengaluru, India
Process
It was a drive for top engineering college passouts at the Cisco campus. Initially, there was one written round with multiple-choice questions.
Next, there was a face-to-face interview. This was the main round, lasting 1-2 hours, and it checked our knowledge of networking, operating systems, and programming.
It was a nice outcome for me as I was selected.
