      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ciena

      Interview

      The interview process consists of three main stages. First, there is an initial screening interview where the candidate's background, skills, and experience are discussed. Following the initial interview, the candidate is given a take-home assignment designed to assess technical abilities and problem-solving skills. After submitting the assignment, the candidate has a second interview to review the work in detail. During this interview, the approach to the assignment, the implemented solutions, and any challenges faced are discussed.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Candidates are given three possible projects to choose from: designing a control system using Octave, Python, or MATLAB; designing a digital filter according to specified requirements; or writing a program to estimate the transfer function given some data. Typically, candidates have approximately two weeks to complete the chosen project and write a comprehensive report. The estimated time to finish the assignment is around 20 hours.
