Interview
Had several interviews and a screening round, all went well. I was about to continue to a next round, when my next interview got 'put on hold' with a few days notice, and I never heard anything back. I sent emails asking what happened 3 times, got ignored. Very unprofessional.

Interview
Very classic interview process. Recruiters and Hiring Managers seemed very risk-averse. Overall fine experience, but did not trigger any particular excitement for the team or its ambitions. I did not continue the process past the first two interviews as it didn't feel like a fit.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Your current job is for a company that markets itself in a way that makes more attractive to young people, do you see yourself in a culture like Cisco's?

Interview
It was clumsy. The hiring manager was 20 minutes late to the phone call. He was not prepared. Then, no one ever closed the loop to say I wasn't moving forward in the process. It left a bad taste in my mouth.
