I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cisco (Boxborough, MA) in Aug 2015
Interview
Met one on one with 4 people for about an hour each. Schedule was worked out in advance, so I knew who I'd talk with. Interviewers had clearly read my resume. Asked questions about my actual experience. Answered all of my questions honestly.

Question 1
Describe how agile development is used at your company, what works well, and what can be improved.
No lack of clarity. They would push you to take interviews at odd times and remain silent for weeks and all of a sudden would wake up and then schedule another call.

Question 1
All management related questions like how do you manage conflict etc etc
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cisco
Interview
No clear process followed. Multiple rounds of interviews, slow decision making. HR is horrible in handling the process to make an offer. There is no clear communication about when and what will be next steps.
