      Solutions Engineer Interview

      12 July 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Hanover, MD
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Ciena (Hanover, MD) in May 2023

      Interview

      I applied and then it took them 2 and a half months to get back then they set up an interview over video for 7 am because one of the interviewers lived in India. Then was interviewed by 2 people The one in the US was more friendly and asked relatively relevant questions, but the one in India made it more of an interrogation than an interview. He asked questions like "How do we know you won't leave for another role in a company?". Over all horrible interview.
