I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (San Jose, CA) in Feb 2018
Interview
I had two interviews in total. Both virtually through Cisco's video conferencing platform, Webex. Both were mostly behavioral questions, the interview with my would-be-manager was a little more technical. He asked me if I knew certain things in Excel like vlookup. He also asked me a very specific question about accounting for things like inconsistent names in a dataset. Overall, it was really easy to talk to both interviewers.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cisco (Bengaluru) in Aug 2025
