I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (London, England) in Dec 2017
Interview
Great Assessment Centre. HR and the rest of the stuff are very friendly. Assessment centre consisted of 3 main parts: interview, role play and presentation. Interview is pretty straightforward, I was mainly asked about my experience in accordance with my CV. Role play is a bit more challenging but Cisco provides enough information for you to practice. The important thing is to practice several times with your friends/ family before going in. The presentation is pretty classic, although you won't be allowed to have a powerpoint , so better learn everything by hard.
