J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez Cisco (Austin, TX) en avr. 2016
Entretien
I've interviewed for Cisco many times. Sometimes I've gotten a job offer, sometimes I haven't. This review is about a time I didn't. The interview process took place over 2 days and consisted of four, one-hour video conference sessions with the team manager, the tech lead, the team members and then again the team manager. Live coding was accomplished by sharing my desktop and writing in pseudo code.
I did make it to the final round, and we did discuss salary although it ended up being much less than I was expecting.
