January 1, 2016
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I initially received a phone call from a hiring company that works with Cisco. They asked me basic questions about the company, which are mentioned below. Based on each point I made, it was equivalent to a specific score, which was then added up to a final score that determined if I would get a second interview with the team manager.

Questions

The first interview was with Adecco, a hiring company. I was asked what I knew about the company, why I was interested in Cisco, where I saw myself in 10 years, and what I expected from the internship.

The second interview was conducted by the manager. They asked me mostly about my CV, the projects I had done, and my experience with group projects. I was asked to explain a situation where I was put in a difficult position. They also asked about Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) concepts, specifically encapsulation, polymorphism, and inheritance.
