I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cisco (Vancouver, BC) in Jul 2021
Interview
phone interview there was loud noise from the interviewer side I even cound not hear what the question was, I answered two of the quesitons which I can hear but seemed useless.
The interview process was highly organized and welcoming, with clear communication and respectful interviewers, creating a positive atmosphere that highlighted the company's values and commitment to employee satisfaction and professional growth.
HR was quick to follow up with the next steps, questions were very different by interviewers. Very technical questions with problem solving experience, things you can answer easily if you actually have enough experience
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (Poland, ME) in Sep 2023
Interview
The interview process typically consists of several stages, depending on the company and role. Here’s a general breakdown:
Application & Screening – The company reviews your application, resume, and cover letter to determine if you meet the basic qualifications.
Phone or Video Interview – An initial conversation (often with HR or a recruiter) to discuss your experience, skills, and interest in the role.
Technical/Skills Assessment (if applicable) – Some positions may require a test or project to assess your technical skills or problem-solving abilities.
First-Round Interview – This is usually with a hiring manager or team member to dive deeper into your background, experience, and suitability for the role.
Final Interview(s) – Often with senior leadership, team members, or a panel to evaluate your fit within the company culture and alignment with company goals.
