July 1, 2015
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

It started with an Aptitude Test (Online) of 60 minutes.

Then, there were two technical rounds.

And one HR round.

They focus on logical thinking and problem-solving capability.

Hints were given for some problems.

It was a great experience for me because I was interviewed by a panel that had 20 years of experience in the technical vertical.

Questions

They asked me about:

  • Brute-forcing
  • Big O time complexity
  • Shaker sort vs. Bubble sort
  • C memory representation
  • How .exe files load into memory
  • Static variable allocation
  • IP headers

Reverse a linked list.

And YES, the main question:

Explain shaping and policing in CISCO.
