Hi everyone,

I recently appeared for the Cisco Technical Intern 2027 on-campus online assessment through my university recruiting process in the US. Sharing my experience for anyone preparing.

MCQs and Subjective Section

The theoretical section was more technical than I expected.

Topics included:

• Operating Systems
• Computer Networks
• Object-Oriented Programming
• Computer Architecture
• C/C++ fundamentals

The subjective section was not just short factual answers. Most questions required proper technical explanations, so they took considerably more time than typical MCQs.

Coding Round

There were 2 implementation-focused coding problems. The coding section was challenging mainly because of the time pressure. With 42 total questions, you have to move quickly and avoid getting stuck too long on any one section.

Both problems were solid DSA/data-structure questions, and the expected style was closer to clean C++ implementation using structs/classes rather than just plain functions and arrays.

Coding Question 1: Implement an LFU Cache

Related Cisco practice problem: Implement an LFU Cache

The task was to design a cache that supports get and put operations while evicting the least frequently used key when capacity is full.

If multiple keys have the same frequency, the least recently used key among them should be evicted.

Core idea:

• Use a hashmap for key to node/value lookup
• Track frequencies separately
• Maintain ordering within each frequency bucket
• Keep track of the current minimum frequency
• Make both get and put efficient

This was not too bad conceptually, but the implementation details can get messy under time pressure.

Coding Question 2: Solve max-subarray, min-unique, and grid-jump

Related Cisco practice problem: Solve max-subarray, min-unique, and grid-jump

This was a multi-part implementation-style problem. It tested whether you could quickly recognize common patterns and code them cleanly.

The parts were around:

• Finding a maximum subarray with indices
• Handling uniqueness/minimization logic
• Solving a grid-jump style traversal problem

Core idea:

• Kadane-style logic for the max subarray part
• Hashing/frequency tracking for uniqueness constraints
• BFS/graph traversal thinking for the grid component

The tricky part was not that each subproblem was impossible, but that the combined format required speed, clean structuring, and careful edge-case handling.

Difficulty

MCQs: Medium
Subjective: Medium-Hard, mainly due to length and technical depth
Coding: Medium-Hard

The biggest challenge was time management. The coding questions were manageable if you recognized the patterns quickly, but the subjective section consumed more time than expected.

Preparation Tips

• Revise OS, CN, OOP, Computer Architecture, and C/C++ fundamentals
• Practice cache/data-structure design problems like LRU/LFU
• Practice Kadane’s Algorithm and array implementation problems
• Practice BFS/grid traversal problems with edge cases
• Be comfortable writing clean C++ code using structs/classes
• Take mock OAs under strict time limits

Overall, the OA felt very implementation-heavy and CS-fundamentals-heavy. I would recommend balancing DSA practice with theory revision instead of preparing only LeetCode-style coding problems.

Hope this helps anyone preparing for Cisco Technical Intern 2027.

Hey everyone,

We're Pixen Studio, a web & app development agency also building SaaS products and automation solutions. We've delivered 20+ projects for clients so far and are now looking to scale up our client acquisition.

What we need:

Someone who can find foreign/international clients, pitch our services, and schedule meetings with them.

Rate / Compensation (commission-based, no fixed salary):

• If you find the lead, schedule the meeting, and we close the deal → 20% of total project value
• If you find the lead and close the deal yourself (talk to the client, negotiate, seal it) → 30% of total project value

Project values typically range from $300–$5000+, so commission payouts scale with deal size. No cap on earnings — the more you close, the more you make.

What we offer:

• Web development
• App development
• SaaS products
• Automation solutions

We have a solid portfolio and proven delivery track record, so selling our services should be backed by real results, not just promises.

If you have experience in sales, business development, or lead generation — especially with international/foreign clients — and you're comfortable working on a commission-only basis, drop a comment or DM me. Happy to share our portfolio and past project details.

Looking forward to connecting!

FDE demand is surging. Base salaries are rising. Is this the hottest job in tech right now?

It’s been 2 years since I graduated, and I’m still looking for my first job.

A friend of mine and I are in the same situation. One day, he received an email about hiring for an Associate Software Engineer role at what appeared to be Tiger Analytics. He shared the email with me, so I applied as well.

Soon after, both of us received interview invitations. We attended the virtual interview, but something felt odd. The interviewer never turned on their camera for either of us. The interview itself lasted barely 15 minutes.

That same evening, I received a rejection email,
while my friend was moved to the next stage. The very next day, he received another email asking him to submit documents as he got selected

The entire hiring process felt unusually fast, so my friend decided to verify it. He reached out to someone from Tiger Analytics on LinkedIn and asked if the hiring email was legitimate.

Turns out, it was a scam. The emails were not from Tiger Analytics, and someone was impersonating the company to target job seekers. Like it never had the word “The” in front of company name

After being unemployed for two years, we’re desperate enough that we almost believed it. It’s heartbreaking how scammers take advantage of people who are already struggling to find work.
I’m sharing this so others stay cautious. Please verify every recruiter and every hiring email before sharing personal information or documents.

I'm looking for advice on the next stage of my career. I've had a somewhat unconventional path and am not experienced with job hunting. In fact, one of my major questions is what level of position I'm even in the running for. Anyways, here's the story:

• Physics PhD 2006 followed by a few years in research. This was theoretical pencil and paper work which is all pretty irrelevant for tech
• then two years as a C++ dev at a big corp before being laid off. Was on a small remote team and pretty insulated
• tried to do my own web development business for about a year but no real clients (just some family)
• Now, the bulk of my experience. I founded a tiny ecommerce company, that eventually found its niche in bulk liquidation sales. I fulfilled many technical roles here: built and operated a bespoke internal Node app for our unique needs in inventory management and order fulfillemnt; integrated with external APIs like Shopify and product data sources; managed AWS infra using IaC and config management tools (Ansible, Cloudformation/CDK, Terraform); managed DNS; DBA for Mongodb; crons and serverless workflows (Lambda, Step Functions, etc.) for syncing and maintenance. I have mostly done tech in some form or another for this business (my partner is more the "business" guy). I feel like I did a lot but never had to work at scale as our storefront was run by Shopify and usage of internal tooling was very low.

After about 10 years working on this company, it's basically kaput. We had a nice ride for a while but changes to our industry have just squeezed out all the profit. I don't think I have it in me to risk it again as an entrepreneur so I'm looking at tech openings. My problems are:

What sort of role and what level should I even be looking for? I've been in tech since 2011 and have developed a lot of skills, but because it has been as a solo dev for most of this time, I don't really know how to judge my situation. Should I be aiming at senior roles? My institutional experience is limited if not effectively zero as my one big corp gig was on a very small remote team in which I was pretty isolated and I feel like that would hold me back from senior roles (both getting the job and succeeding at it). Further, I've been a jack of all trades and master of none. I'm probably more experienced in application development but have acquired a lot of AWS knowledge (through experience and also recently two associate level certifications) and am more interested in infra at this point.

I feel pretty at sea so any advice or even just good vibes would be appreciated.

TL;DR: Market's ~3x harder but the game isn't over. (1) Drop your resume with an updated recruiter list (shared mine above), (2) automate mass applications from a separate email so you can track what works, (3) don't sleep on small Fiverr/Upwork gigs, they turn into long-term clients, (4) secretremote for listings. No affiliation with anything I mentioned, most of it's free anyway.

I've been working remote since before it was cool, 10+ years now. Landing a full-time remote job has always been hard, but if you can keep a steady pipeline of small-to-mid gigs going, you can still earn well while working fewer hours.

Not gonna sugarcoat it though: the market is rough. A year and a half ago I'd see roughly 1 response per 35-50 applications. Now, from what I'm seeing, it's more like 1 in 150. So yeah, roughly 3x harder. Is sustainable remote income still possible in this market? My answer is yes. Response rates dropped, but they didn't hit zero. Here's what I actually use:

1) Email your resume directly to recruiters in your field

Someone shared a similar method here 2 years ago and it still works: The only problem is that list is outdated. I built my own updated tech recruiter list about 10 months ago, so here you go:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1p10y44QMgs39CZmPZ9z0AzwMYarqJR2tjVPoppRg_9g/edit?usp=sharing

• If you're in the US with work authorization, use the US tab
• If you're outside the US, use the International tab (companies that hire globally)

Heads up: it's tech recruiters only. If you're in a different field, build your own list. The post above explains how. Takes 2-3 days of grunt work, pays off for months.

Manage your expectations: this is not a fast method. The whole point is getting your resume in front of a ton of recruiters and talent networks so you're visible long-term. You send once, and responses trickle in over time. I average 2-3 interviews every 6-8 months from this list, without actively applying to anything.

2) Automated mass applications

On top of the list, I used an resume distribution tool (paid) to send out 300+ applications. One thing I'd recommend to everyone: I set up a separate email just for this, so I know exactly which channel each response comes from. Otherwise you'll never know what's actually working. This channel got me 2-4 interviews per 6-8 months.

If you're going to pay for a resume tool anyway, it makes sense to get one that also auto-applies: you drop in a job URL and it tailors your resume to the posting, writes the cover letter, and adds it to a job tracker. I'm not actively applying these days so I don't use it anymore, but if you're in the trenches right now, it does the job.

3) Fiverr / Upwork

Had accounts on both for years. It's not what it used to be and rates have dropped, I won't pretend otherwise. But as long as I stay active, I land at least 1 small project every ~6 months.

Concrete example: I picked up a basic QA testing gig at $50/hr. Did 3 jobs like that with the same client, and eventually they offered me a monthly contract off-platform. Ended up working 4 months at $700-800/month for about 1-2 hours a day (wrapped up last month).

I'm a software engineer, but I take QA gigs too. In this market I don't think I have the luxury of being picky, so I take whatever I can do well.

Bonus: everyone you work with over the years becomes part of your network. I've had clients from years ago come back with new projects out of nowhere. Don't sleep on small gigs.

4) Job boards

I don't use it much since I'm not actively applying, but if you're browsing listings, check out secretremote.com. It scans thousands of company career pages and pulls in real remote jobs, filtering out the spam, duplicates, and ghost listings. Free, no signup, and honestly cleaner results than most paid boards.

For full (not hybrid) remote working setup. Is there enough java jobs for this or are Go jobs more inclined to this working setup???

I've been noticing more startup job posts where "full-stack developer" seems to mean "the entire engineering team."

I understand why it happens. If you're an early-stage founder, hiring specialists for every role isn't always realistic. One experienced full-stack developer can often build an MVP, make technical decisions, and help get a product off the ground.

But I've also seen projects where the expectations kept growing.

It starts with building the application.

Then it becomes:

• designing the UI from scratch
• setting up cloud infrastructure
• writing automated tests
• handling deployments
• monitoring production
• fixing security issues
• managing databases
• troubleshooting customer-reported bugs
• documenting everything
• planning new features with stakeholders

Individually, none of these tasks are unreasonable. Many experienced developers can do most of them.

The challenge is when one person becomes responsible for all of them at the same time.

Eventually, that developer becomes the bottleneck for every release, every bug, every infrastructure issue, and every product decision.

From a founder's perspective, asking one person to wear multiple hats can be a practical way to get an MVP into users' hands.

From a developer's perspective, constantly switching between development, infrastructure, testing, planning, and support can reduce productivity and increase the chance of mistakes.

So I'm curious where people draw the line.

At what stage does it stop making sense to rely on one full-stack developer and become time to bring in specialists like a designer, QA engineer, DevOps engineer, or product manager?
