Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en Cisco en mar 2011
Entrevista
-Had phone interview with current Systems Engineering in the field. The interviewer basically asked questions to test you psychologically and your thinking abilities. Nothing technical - more common sense stuff.
-Had to make a 2 minute video presentation about Cisco's Flip Video Camera and post it on YouTube for the interviewers to see.
-Day long interview/assessment at RTP's campus.
1.) Technical Interview - Since I had some qualifications already, my interviewer didn't ask me any stupid questions (like OSI models or what is a router/sw.) I basically had a conversation with him explaining what I know about networking and drawing topologies on the board. He/she did ask several trick questions to make me second guess myself so watch out for that. Either you know or you don't. Don't pretend to know it. - I passed.
-- So if you have networking credentials already, don't expect them to ask you baby questions. Brush up on your networking knowledge.
-- If you have NO networking experience, they will give you a booklet to read. UNDERSTAND the key concepts. Do additional research.
2.) Sales Simulation - talk to a pretend client and advising the client on a Cisco product. Create the relationship. Find customer's business needs. Close the meeting. BAM!
3.) Tech Presentation - Present for the 10 minutes. Answer questions they have. They will ask you questions you should have covered in your research. i.e. "explain this topic in less than 10 words." -- If you don't know a REALLY good answer for that, then you probably still don't know what you're talking about.
Advice:
- Be yourself
- Say what you KNOW is right (don't BS)
- Smile, be friendly
This is a very rigorous interview process. They want to look for candidates with confidence, great interpersonal skills, and leadership abilities.
Got the offer. Everything is non-negotiable :-/ but it's a really awesome deal. Doesn't get any better than this at Cisco.
GL Mates!

First talking to recruiter, then a quick call answering some "technical questions". After which there were some exercises and a video to record on a topic. And the last step was a half day of interviews, roleplays and short exam on site

After a resume screen, a two minute voice recording explaining any Cisco technology that excites you and why.
Next step was a virtual interview with a systems engineer. This consisted of behavioral and technical questions based on a previously specified Cisco product. Last stage was the Assessment Center and its three parts: Behavioral Interview, Technical Presentation, and Discovery Call Role Play.

Eerst was er een cv selectie. Na selectie was er een video interview waar je een aantal antwoorden op behavioral questions moest beantwoorden, bijv. vertel me over een keer dat je een moeilijk situatie had. Hoe heb je het opgelost? Na video interview was er een assessment centre, waar je een aantal rondes achter elkaar had.
