I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cisco
Interview
Had to do two interviews with Cisco Systems. Both of them involved relatively the same process, but just with two different employees. Mainly this process focused on previous experiences and behavioral questions. They also asked questions regarding your knowledge of Cisco and what their future plans are.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (San Jose, CA) in Dec 2010
Interview
Seemed like a boiler room environment. Cool guys, but seemed to be looking for something I didnt have and werent telling me something. Cube environment. Asked how much I made in past. Inside Sales. No thanks.
