The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Cisco in Nov 2009
Interview
I met the person who later became my manager at the career fair in my school. She liked my resume and scheduled me for 1:1 interview in my school. The interview went well. Some questions were technical and some were behavioral. They called me one week later to schedule a phone interview. The phone interview was like an orientation and some simple technical questions. One week later, I was offered the job

Question 1
what is the difference between a router and a switch
It was nice, informative. One should prepare using all resources. They will judge your understanding based on everything that you ever demonstrated in the process, so be aware of everything you said or mentioned.
It was basically deep dive into resume and some questions on Dsa. The overall experience was good. There were 4 rounds in total. Be familiar with basics of the language that you primarily use.
