Entrevista
I applied online for a entry level software engineer position at Cisco systems. I got an email from the university recruiter for a phone interview. Phone interview went well. It was just about my resume and the projects I have completed. During the interview she told me that she is satisfied with my profile and she is going to send my profile to their hiring manager and I will be hearing from them within three weeks for the next round. But I didn't get any email from them. I waited for a month and them sent a mail to the university recruited who interviewed me, but she didn't reply me back.
The interview process was two rounds. The first round was a behavioral interview. Straightforward questions, like tell me about the most technically challenging project you have worked on. The second round was a system design interview.
