      Graduate Associate Systems Engineer Interview

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco in Jan 2015

      Interview

      Got a meeting set-up on WebEx, their own meeting-friendly version of Skype. No video was used and the audio quality was pretty good, though I had some trouble because the HR were British. It started them reading some kind of check-off list including a statement that in order to proceed to the next stage I had to do very well because they have very high standards. Don't be put off by this however because the interviewer was very friend and helpful. Got mixed up with a couple of questions but I had a chance to change my answer. Was a bit nervous and it showed in my English but it didn't affect the scoring, it is the answers that matter so relax.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Questions were pretty basic but worth preparing for. One of them was: "Tell me of a time when you persuaded your group to work for a common goal".
