We had an online screening test with two coding questions and an aptitude test. The aptitude MCQs also included networks and systems beginner questions which were relatively easy to do. There were 3 rounds to the interview process, technical, managerial, and HR. Technical round grilled me on my projects and asked me basic DSA and little advanced Networks questions (cause I did mention I am skilled in Networks). The managerial round also asked me a couple of my project-based questions, and talked to me about my experience in coding and stuff, and also a couple of managerial HR questions. HR was pretty smooth, got to know me better, and asked me what I know about CISCO, CISCO's competitors, my preferred work location, and my flexibility on work hours. End of the day since it was campus recruitment they proceeded with the first 8 candidates who gave their interview first so I did miss the opportunity even after having answered every question right.

Got sent OA after applying 2-3 leetcode easy-medium questions. First round was a 15 minute resume rundown with 2 engineers and a object oriented style coding question that asked how to parse and filter data outputted from an API call. Second round was a traditional leetcome medium with technical hiring manager.

I just had the recruiter screen, the questions asked were basic and if you prepare well enough you don't need to worry. It was only over the phone, no zoom call, so it was a little difficult to establish a connection and therefore felt a little like an interrogation.

Started with a recruiter screen, basic questions, then OA, then a behavioral and technical (language concepts, sorting algorithms, technical background) with option for virtual and in-person. Received offer a week later.
