I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco
Interview
Had a phone interview. Then invited for onsite interviews. There were 3 interviews, technical, mini-presentation, and fundamental. The technical included 2 interviewers. The fundamental asked for puzzles, some projects i've worked on. The presentation was a simple presentation on internet of everything. The technical questions were on network troubleshooting. Overall it was a good experience, everyone was very nice and looked happy. The network engineer position is sort of a technical support position where you work with a customer to fix any networking issues. Not really a software engineer position, which is what I am more interested in after spending 4 years programming in college.
