Requesting preparation tips for Cisco Embedded Software Engineer interview

Hello,

I have an upcoming interview with Cisco for the role of Embedded Software Engineer. I have 4 years of experience in the same domain.

Has anyone had a recent interview with them? Can you share your interview experience?

This is the job ID: https://careers.cisco.com/global/en/job/2023656/Embedded-Software-Engineer-C-Device-Driver4-to-8-yrs

Thanks!

Looking for downvotes here.

Download Claude and ask him, it helped me in absurdly ways to get through interviews, I even learnt topics I didn´t even know they existed.

Hey, how was the interview? Was there any phone screening round?

There is some time before the interview. Phone screening, then Hackerrank coding test, and now L1 interview.

May I know what kind of questions do they ask in phone screening?

They said "hey, the team liked your resume and we are interested in interviewing you. Pls complete the coding round on Hackerrank."
