Interviewed Apr 2011 in Bangalore (India) (took a day)
Had a 1 hour phone interview followed by questia face to face interview. In face-to-face interview the questions were mostly on Linux internals kernel. All questions required thorough understanding of linux kernel. Next round consisted of algorithms and data structures. I could not get through to next round as the interviewer was not satisfied with my approach.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in San Jose, CA (took 3 weeks)
There was an initial phone interview with the hiring manager, which consisted of only technical Qs. Later there was an onsite interview with written coding round and five 1:1 interviews. Interviewers were team members with varying experience. Most Qs were technical networking related. The coding round consisted of 3 programming Qs with 1.5 hrs. There was no review of code after the interview. All in all it was a pleasant experience. Very disappointing that I could not get an offer.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in San Jose, CA (took a day)
I was contacted by a recruiter from Brocade to set up a telephonic interview. The interview was relatively easy and consisted of questions on sockets, VLANs, TCP/IP, ARP. Then they asked about my projects, some operating systems concepts like difference between thread and process. Finally he concluded the interview saying he thinks I am suitable for a software engineer in test and not a software developer. Key point being not a single coding question asked yet he arrives at that conclusion.
