Cisco Systems Software Engineer Interview

Posted Jun 6, 2012

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in San Jose, CA Feb 2010 – Reviewed Jun 6, 2012

Interview Details – Initially I went to the career fair in my university and got my 10 minute in person interview with one of the recruiters. Next I got a phone call for another on campus screening interview which was pretty easy considering, my interviewer was not paying any attention to anything I was saying, he just asked me questions straight from my resume and was chatting away on the chat client on his laptop. After that I got invited for onsite interview which took whole day, Cisco flew me to the San Jose where for 1 straight day I had 5 behavioral interviews and 1 technical. Overall technical questions were stupid easy, like what is AJAX, etc.

Interview Question – What is AJAX?   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – After the interview I got an offer about 14 days later. Should ahve negotiated for more money. :/
