two rounds interview, first meeting with the hire manger on the line and then interviewed with team members to answer some technical questions about what I did in precious companies.
I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ciena
Interview
Starting with a C (language) & Aptitude based pen paper round. We moved on to the interview. Interview was mostly technical discussion. We had only 1 round. Overall it was not just like your typical viva but a fully detailed discussion about a computer

Questions on Bit Manipulaiton. Very detailed discussion about OS, CN. Everything that can be discussed about the computer was discussed.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Ciena (Ottawa, ON) in Apr 2023
Interview
Very friendly interview process and I had a great experience overall. The questions weren't too technical and they truly seemed like they cared. Would prefer in person interviews but I understand the reasoning for the online format.
The interview process was like a normal conversation and you got to know more about what the company does. The behavioral questions can be answered through your own experiences. This position involves a lot of c programming work.
