I applied online. I interviewed at Cisco (Bengaluru)
Interview
Its well organized process. All steps are well defined. Firstly multiple tech round then managerial round then HR round. All rounds were of 30 min to 1 hr. Overall experience was very good👍
It was difficult especially when getting interviewed by multiple people back to back. However, majority of the questions were based from the job description and technical knowledge as well. Overall, just prepare well and you will do great.
A very fair technical interview with two software engineers. They asked me about my project and we discussed it at length, before going into a whiteboard DSA-style question. The question was fairly easy, but they are very insistent on writing it out by hand on a whiteboard. The process was extremely fair, and even when I was struggling with the implementation and messing things up, I felt that the interviewers were trying to help me.

Question 1
Leetcode #88 but with the twist that the intervals are not at the end of the larger array but rather are randomly placed in the array.
They care about your skills, rather than your background. They have a template which they provide and you got to fill that, everyone is provided a unique number. You are instructed not to disclose any of your personal details in the due course of your interview.
