I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cisco (Austin, TX) in Jan 2013
Interview
Interview took place over the phone on two separate occasions. Both instances I spoke to my hiring manager. The first round was to get to know me and the second was more technical. Overall the interview was mostly to see if I would fit in with the team. Even the technical questions were simple since my hiring manager was not an engineer. Make sure to check the role of who is conducting the interview.
