Application

I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Sourcefire (Columbia, MD) in May 2015

Interview

I took take-home test first which is basically c programming problems and network related conceptions. Then I went to Columbia for onsite. There were 4 rounds. They recommended to use C in interview but not required. The problems were not hard but they might comp up with some follow-ups regarding OS or network.

I interviewed at Sourcefire

Interview

The entire process was unorganized and a few people did not show. The interviewers used every curse word imaginable. They used disguised insults, as well. They totally wasted my time. They spoke highly of their reputation because they are now a part of Cisco. However, this is the way that they conduct business.
