The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco in Feb 2012
Interview
I was impressed with the people I spoke and met with at Cisco, but was disappointed by their lack of follow up. After investing 7 hours of my time interviewing with them, I never received the courtesy of a reply informing me I was not a fit, despite follow up emails thanking them for their time and inquiring on my status. I ultimately accepted a job elsewhere and am very happy in my new role, but found their failure to communicate to be very unprofeasional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you've worked in a highly political environment.
Very smooth process, good conversations, timely response, the questions were related to the job, I enjoyed the conversations. I was able to learn a lot about the culture and the job, got to meet the team members.
Insgesamt sehr angenehm und locker. Es fanden mehrere Gespräche kurz aufeinander statt, mit verschiedenen Managern an diversen Standorten. Dauer je ca. 1 Stunde. Inhaltlich alle sehr ähnlich. Man hatte den Eindruck die Fragen wurden abgesprochen. Gespräche waren in Englisch.

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Cisco (Munich, Bavaria) in Apr 2016
Interview
After a horrible online process I managed to apply. It took 6 weeks before I was contacted after my application. The telephone interview did someone from Ireland. She even didn't now that the office is moving now - and she didn't read my CV properly in advance, asked questions (reporting line, which already was in my CV) three times. Afterwards it took another 8 weeks before I received feedback.
