I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (San Jose, CA)
Interview
Super organized and fast interview process. The recruiter was great and always kept me in the loop at every step of the way and answered all questions within a day. Overall great experience. Started with initial phone screening with the recruiter then a WebEx meeting with the hiring manager then a 3 hour long interview with the rest of the team. It was definitely more for "fit" vs. technical knowledge since at that point they only asked very minor questions relating to job history. Received an offer within 3 hours of leaving the final round. They also conducted a very thorough background check.
