      Software Engineer Interview

      16 Dec 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Meraki in Nov 2023

      Interview

      In the last two weeks, I have been undergoing interviews for a position at Cisco Meraki. There were four technical rounds, including a live coding session in the first technical interview, followed by three more technical interviews with questions. Additionally, I had two interviews with the HR team from the consulting agency handling the recruitment process. The first three technical interviews with the Meraki team were great, very positive experiences with respectful individuals who were mindful of the interview duration. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for the last interview. He arrived almost 10 minutes late, which was understandable, but his demeanor was not as friendly as the previous interviewers. Throughout the interview, he seemed bothered, and his microphone had intermittent issues. The interview, initially scheduled for 30 minutes and conducted during my lunch break, ended up lasting 50 minutes because he did not adhere to the allotted time. Despite being able to answer the technical questions, I occasionally had to ask him to repeat due to the difficulty in understanding his accent. After three successful rounds where I was approved and praised, the fourth round, unfortunately, turned out to be a significant disappointment, resulting in my elimination from what was supposed to be the final stage of the process. It was a frustrating and exhausting experience. I believe a fourth technical round was unnecessary, especially after three thorough and enlightening rounds. I hope the selection process improves, as I was genuinely excited about the prospect of joining the company, and now I have a different, negative perception.

      Interview

      Interview process was typical but the position was "closed" right before my last interview and they told me the day I was supposed to have that interview. So I ended up taking the day off for nothing.

      I interviewed at Meraki

      Interview

      After a phone screening, I had a technical interview with 2 engineers, both very nice people. They asked me about some of my work, asked me to explain some networking fundamentals, and then a straightforward coding question. It was a very good interview, I simply went in unprepared and dropped the ball. Know the basics of networking interviews inside and out and you should be able to sail through the first interview. There would've been 1 or 2 more interviews after (I got the gist that those would've been more demanding but cannot say for sure).
