I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ciena (Bengaluru) in Sept 2019
Interview
First of all i would like to thanks Ciena and Team to give me an opportunity.
Really very good staff.
I appeared for an interview in Bangalore.
The was good
1st :- Mcq and 2 coding questions in C# as it was for .net developer.(Basic C#, Linq, Access Modifiers, OOPS concepts, delegates).
Here i wrote my algorithm and code in c/c++, so of reviewer called me and asked me to write the in C# i gave a try but it was not convincing to him and to me too(frankly) . And was because in my academic i wrote code in C and in my current company it is in C#. I couldn't make my mind. Even when i went for interview i prepared for C# only but i read about concepts and didn't gave a try for coding practice in C#.
They asked me that logically your questions are correct and if can make yourself comfortable in C# within a month or two, have a call with HR may be you get a chance again to get interviewed.
Thanks again Ciena. And really i will do coding practice on C# and i will revert back to you soon😊.
