I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Cisco (Research Triangle Park, NC) in Mar 2013
Interview
The process started with a request to walk the interviewer through a detailed analysis of routing from the perspective of a CCNA certification test (they didn't say that, but that is what it was). If you plan to interview, I'd recommend starting there.
