I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco in Jan 2015
Interview
Only 2 rounds of web interviews. Almost all questions were common behavioral questions. The only technical questions was on some basic networking stuff like what is a switch. I felt like I did very well on both interviews, especially the last one, but did not get an offer for some unknown reason.
I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (Boston, MA) in Mar 2014
Interview
The interview process was pretty unstructured for me. I spoke with several people apart of the program to discuss career goals, previous experiences and education, and what I am looking to get out of this type of internship. The overall process from first discovering the position to getting an offer took about 3 weeks for me
