Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
Because Cisco merges many companies, different groups rely on their own HR/HM to find candidates. Therefore, you have to submit applications to many positions.
Campus interviews are a good way to go.
My interviews involved three rounds of technical phone interviews. All the programming questions, from data structures to how to use the debugger.
They soon gave the offer (a reasonably good one).
