I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Cisco (Bengaluru) in Feb 2018
Interview
There was a multiple choice written test for which you had to get 50% of what you answered. If in then it was the round for 2nd technical round. Giving you answers only to questions where you can get confused. The 2nd technical round was purely commanded questions.
I applied online, heard back with in a week, initial recruiter screening, manager interview, technical panel interview, then manager interview again. Technical was a mix of fundamentals and a couple of pretty challenging ones to know off the top your head.
Very casual, unorganised interview. Interviewers talked for the majority and had no idea who I was before the interview i.e. didnt review my CV or experience. Any questions seemed very odd the cuff and unrelated to the job in question.
Very thorough and detailed. Expect in depth questions and be ready with reasonings. I did find it difficult at some points but overall i did prepare well. If you remember your past experiences and concepts you won’t find it that much difficult.
