Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (Mumbai) in May 2011
Interview
Generally 4 rounds with different levels. Interviews are in depth checking on skill sets. Defending the resume is critical. reason for changing job is invariably asked. Presentation skills are checked
The interview was fairly simple. It was more of a verification of personality fit with the team. Interviewed with 4 managers (2 technical side and 2 from sales), and 2 team members. The interview questions were scenario based in relations to dealing with customer interactions versus technical questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There was no really difficult or surprising question. Sales knowledge or interaction was key.
