Software Test Automation Engineer Interview Experience - San Jose, California
Process
This experience was horrible and seemed a bit like a Trump-like attitude. Within minutes, an automated or racist manual reviewer sent back an email stating that based on my answers to questions, I could not be put forward.
Answers to what questions exactly? I think Cisco should come out openly and state that they want to build a virtual wall, and no one outside that wall should apply to them.
