Me postulé a través de una facultad o universidad. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Arista Networks en feb 2015
Entrevista
Interview with one technical employee for 45 minutes. The whole coding interview happens on a provided linux machine. Use vim to edit code and gcc to compile. The coding test is simple but should be bug free. More questions about computer architecture and C language. The second part was about performance. Compare several functions, tell the output of the functions and determine which one is more efficient in time complexity.

The coding challenge was: find a disordered element in a sorted array of integers.

Pros:
Great initial approach – the recruiter thoroughly checked my GitHub profile and projects before the interview, which is very uncommon and shows they do their homework.
Cons:
A major mismatch between the job description ("Software Engineer C++") and the actual interview reality. The technical stage on CoderPad strictly tests bare-metal C98 skills: raw pointers, manual bitwise operations, and packing bytes into 64-bit integers. If you are accustomed to modern C++ (RAII, templates, safe memory management), this will feel like a massive step backward. Additionally, the time expectations for live low-level bit-shifting were unrealistic, to the point where the interviewer started solving the task themselves.
Interview was kind and not stressful, just minor mismatch of naming

Pretty good, not too complicated, was comfortable. Mostly LC questions, and was easy enough that you should be able to do it after doing NC150. good luck for the interview!
Starts with online test, then three rounds of technical interviews follow.
Not a lot of discussion, just go straight to the technical challenges which have to be solved in time
