Here are the most commonly searched roles for interview reports -
I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Juniper Networks (West Lafayette, IN) in Nov 2019
Interview
Terrible. They are very unorganized and not at all structured. They have separate interview processes for each team and I found myself taking at least a total of 8-9 calls/interviews with the company in total. I had a coding interview through google docs when I was told it would be behavioral. They seem to only care about getting their exact intuition towards the coding question and do not care for your personal/soft skills. Most interviews did not even want to put time aside to take about me or my past experience. The recruiters were bad at keeping the interviewees up-to-date with the process.

It was pretty relaxed - one round with project manager, 3 rounds with engineers. It was a C focused role and they stressed a lot on multi-threading, TCP/IP and socket programming.
