The hiring process at Cisco takes an average of 46 days when considering 2 user submitted interviews across all job titles. Candidates applying for CSM had the quickest hiring process (on average 1 day), whereas Intern Field Sales roles had the slowest hiring process (on average 90 days).
It was 3 interviews that talked about your motivations, and they had some scenario-based questions as well. You didn't get much feedback after each interview, but each interviewer was very professional.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Cisco (Bengaluru) in Sep 2021
Interview
Regular interview. Works great if you already know someone inside who can vouch for you. expectations from Employer are high, they expect you to know the partners and customers well.

Applied with a referral. Received the online assessment shortly after applying. Passed all the test cases, but got no response. I’ve heard from others that the OA is automatically given to every applicant.
