I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Cisco (San Francisco, CA) in May 2010
Interview
Process started with a relaxed phone interview from a recruiter. Pretty basic questions about my background and what I like. Phone interview with the Hiring Manager was next. Questions were about my background, why I left my previous company, and other questions to gauge my thought process. Next was a phone interview with a team mate of the position that I applied for. Questions involved my knowledge and interests in Databases. None of the questions were hard. More leaning towards figuring out my interest in DBA work and compatibility. Next I was called in for an on-site interview. Each of the team members took turns interviewing me. Questions were a mix of technical questions and questions about how i would handle certain situations. Interviews lasted half a day. Each of the team members were really nice and gracious.
Roughly four weeks later, i was told that the position that I applied for was no longer open due to BU needs.

Found the job via 3rd party recruiter, had phone interview then onsite interview with the manager and then one of his employees. I ended up getting the offer, but it sure did take a long time from the offer date to the start date (almost a month).
