I applied online. I interviewed at Cisco (San Jose, CA) in Dec 2020
Interview
Interviewed in Dec 2020. My first round was with three people from the team. The interviewers were really good and the entire interview felt like a conversation. I gained a lot of insights into what I should expect out of the role through the interview. What I didn't like about the process is that the recruiter ghosted me after the first round even after multiple follow-ups. I didn't receive a reject mail after the interview.
