I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Cisco (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2015
Interview
Submitted resume online. Then went through 3 rounds of selection. First round was a one on one 30 minute video interview. Second, a 2 minute video submission. Finally the remaining candidates were flown out to Toronto for the assessment day. The assessment day was composed of a technical exam, panel interview, presentation and roleplay.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interviewers do a very good job of tailoring their questions to the candidates. The most important thing to do is to be honest. When they ask difficult questions they are trying to assess your level of knowledge and they understand if you don't know the answer. Just be upfront and honest. Say out right that you don't know but that you will get back to them with the right answer. Then, actually follow up with them.

First talking to recruiter, then a quick call answering some "technical questions". After which there were some exercises and a video to record on a topic. And the last step was a half day of interviews, roleplays and short exam on site

Eerst was er een cv selectie.

Hoe heb je het opgelost? Na video interview was er een assessment centre, waar je een aantal rondes achter elkaar had.
