I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco in Feb 2024
Interview
Unfortunately, the experience was less than ideal. The interviewer seemed overly focused on higher technical details, even for an entry-level position. Their questions were so in-depth that it felt like they were expecting expert-level knowledge. Additionally, The interviewer was extremely uninterested even yawning throughout the interview, which made it difficult to feel engaged and confident.

Hour and a half of qustions ranging from past experience and projects to algorithmic task.Also questions about the internals of cpp,how compiling works etc. Good to know every project you listed on cv in depth,they will ask you.
I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (Belgrade, Central Serbia) in Jan 2025
Interview
First comes HR interview where you talk about yourself and the company's products. Then the first technical interview is onsite and you talk about your CV, projects, you answer theoretical questions (operation systems, object oriented programing, cpp in general) and then you get algorithm task (2 if you have time). You write on the board pseudo code and it should be optimized (but you can start with the brute force solution). Next round of technical is the same but you speak on English!
