Der gesamte Ablauf war sehr angenehm. Zunächst führte ich ein ausführliches Gespräch mit dem Hiring Manager, gefolgt von einem technischen Interview. Anschließend fand ein Rollenspiel statt, in dem eine realistische Kundensituation simuliert wurde. Zum Abschluss präsentierte ich noch ein Produkt und beantwortete dazu verschiedene Fragen.

Smooth and simple 4 rounds 2 technical round 2 HR round Technical questions are logical somewhere while HR round quite smoother. One technical round was quite tricky to answer.so try to push answering without saying I don't know.

I went through multiple rounds of interviews for a Cisco Solutions Engineer role, including technical interviews, a peer panel, and even preparing and presenting on Cisco SD-WAN. The feedback during the process was consistently positive — one panelist even told me the interview went well. And then? Silence. No closure, no communication. I only discovered the role was closed when I logged into Cisco’s careers site and saw my status change. After weeks of effort and follow-up emails, I never received any professional notice from recruiting or the hiring team. For a company of Cisco’s size and reputation, this is unacceptable. If this is how Cisco treats candidates they’ve actively engaged and invested time in, I can only imagine how little they value employees once they’re inside. Cisco talks about culture and collaboration, but their hiring process shows the opposite — disorganization, lack of respect for candidates’ time, and complete failure to communicate. Don’t waste your time here unless you’re prepared to be treated like a number in a broken system.
