Great Exposure, Many Teams
Great Exposure, Many Teams
Great exposure for the field of your choice. If you don't like the role, you could always try something else.
Cisco is a big company, so with that comes challenges of dealing with tens of teams and bigger cross-functional teams. You need to engage with several teams to get your work done.

Cisco Interview Experiences
Component Engineer
Easy. Since it was a university hire, the questions are usually very easy. Most of them are behavioral questions, and they don't go very deep. The HM is very nice and not very pushy.
Quality Assurance
It was fairly good and well organized. The team was very friendly and interactive. The interview process was smooth and finished the process in a week.
ML/AI Engineer
It was a one-round interview. It was predominantly on data science and large language models. They gave me a repo of an agent framework and asked me to find the code where reward is calculated.
