Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Arista Networks (Burnaby, BC) en jul 2015
Entrevista
I contacted a recruiter by email, and had the first interview a few weeks later. First interview, they ask you to code on the spot, three questions. They've implemented some tests within the main exercise and ask you to write a particular function (i.e palindrome, etc..).
Second interview was more design related, was asked to describe a hash table, how it works, best way to implement, etc..
The office was nice, open concept. The building is a bit isolated in a business Park though. The interviewers were very friendly and knowledgeable.

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
