I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cisco (San Jose, CA) in Mar 2023
Interview
The interview process was decent overall. Because I was an intern the questions were not very technical. The first interview asked me more about my interests and how I handle different situations. The "technical" interview asked me more about my resume.
