Three HackerRank questions of fairly easy difficulty, only made hard by seemingly arbitrary edge case handling imposed by the prompts. Need to pay attention to these or you will fail a surprisingly large amount of test cases.
I applied online. I interviewed at Cisco (Toronto, ON) in Oct 2023
Interview
First, screening round was of 3 programming questions in c#, java, python, c++, c languages.
First 2 questions were easy but the third one was quite complicating. All the questions were quite similar to the questions found on leetcode platform.
Interviews at cicso are quite random. Even my first round went pretty well, I didnt get call for next round. The interview process is about 4 rounds long last being HR and 2 technical and one managerial round
Interview questions [1]
