I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Meraki (Sydney)
Interview
Had 2 interviews - phone and face to face.
Phone to phone was basic networking questions. Face to face was a whiteboard session. You meet two different people and they draw a scenario on the board which your expected to solve. They give you very little info, but you can ask them questions and based on these qns they will give you hints

Question 1
Phone interview - basic networking qns involving routing and switching concepts as well as wireless concepts: What is stp? What's the difference between rtsp and stp? What makes rstp converge faster? Two computers are connected via a L2 switch - explain the ping concept. Also, explain how the mac table on a switch gets populated

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Meraki in Nov 2024
Interview
3-4 sessions with different tech support staff and managers over a period of 4 weeks. Overall a very kind behaviour towards the candidate, more like a friendly discussion. They almost instantly informed you for every stage's results and comments of the interviwer(s).
started with an online written interview for the first step pretty simple and straight forward not too hard. I have not got to the next steps yet still awaiting further contact
