I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cisco (San Jose, CA) in Apr 2007
Interview
first I got referred by my friend in Cisco, then I got a telephone inteview, and you know it is not hard for me since I have been in this field for several years. Then I got the on-site, several manager/engineer asked me questions about my former job/skill/backgound and so on. And they seemed satisfied with my skill, so eventually I got the job. That is it.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Cisco (Bengaluru) in Sep 2024
Interview
First round was aptitude round with 2 coding questions and a few more questions from the subject that we're doing our degree in. The timing is limited. The whole session will be monitored
I applied online. I interviewed at Cisco (Washington, DC)
Interview
Short, as it did not proceed very far beyond initial talks on compensation. Contacted recruiter/feeder on LinkedIn. Heard back fairly quickly. They were frank about constraints on compensation package. Did not proceed to technical questions.
No pressure. Friendly. Met team members. Had lunch. great company. no so great compensation. Lots of initiatives. Lots of lazy heads too. Not so much to talk about. Great place to retire.
