I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cisco in Dec 2017
Interview
Applied through employee referral. Only had one interview, which was a little odd-- normal behavioral/background questions, and then one coding question. They took a month to get back to me after this interview with my offer.

I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Cisco in Apr 2016
Interview
Had a couple of short 30 minute interviews with two teams. Neither interview had any technical coding questions, just an explanation of the project, whether I would be interested, and some behavioral questions.
HR recruiter contacted me through email to set up a WebEx interview. That went well and I had one additional interview over WebEx before receiving the offer through phone that was from the first HR recruiter that contacted me.
