Behavioural plus some technical testing questions on different testing methodologies and lot of questions asked from prior experiences and resume. Important to understand different methods of test driven development in a test environment setting.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ciena (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Jan 2013
Interview
There were following rounds in the interview process.
1. First technical - Java core
2. Second technical - Java core
2. Manager - Previous projects
3. HR - Salary
Overall it should not be difficult to clear the interview if java core is prepared.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ciena (Bengaluru) in June 2017
Interview
It was pathetic and horrible . They came bangalore to hire the C#. Net developers for Gurgaon location on 3rd June 2017. They have not mentioned any written test round in call letter and they have taken written test first. I cleared 1st round. It was very complicated and confusing one even their own employees would not be able to solve a single question. 2nd round was techincal. It was supposed to be on C#. net but interviewer has given all the data structure and multithreading problems. I solved almost all the problems like reversing the linked list, Printing circle pattern and etc. It went around 1 and half hour. He asked me to wait outside then HR came and told me you are not selected. I think they were not interesting in hiring the good candidates.Honestly speaking do not go to their drive otherwise you will feel waste of time. Interviewer himself was confused while giving the problems.
