Process
I received a call from a project manager. The phone interview took about an hour. I was asked a few questions about why I chose Cisco, and then a few other questions about my fourth-year project and previous experience. Once that was done, I was asked to join a conference call and start coding some linked lists.
Questions
Create a linked list and then write functions to add and delete nodes from it.
