I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Cisco (Toronto, ON) in Jan 2020
Interview
Only 2 people showed up for the in-person interview (instead of 5, as originally planned) but they were very pleasant. I ended up speaking with 2 Executive Assistants, but unfortunately did not meet the 2 VP’s who were looking for an Executive Assistant. It would’ve been much better if I had a chance to meet those 2 people as they were decision makers on this case.
