J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Cisco (San Jose, CA) en oct. 2016
Entretien
tl;dr: some of their offices are just renovated and may not have snacks around. Bring some by yourself if you get hungry easily during interviews.
I had 2 phone calls with them before visiting onsite. The first was the recruiter and the second hiring manager. They're mostly about past experience and no coding interview included.
During onsite visit I met 5 people. The first interviewer asked behavioral questions and a brain teaser. The second asked C++ OOP (e.g. multiple inheritance) and coding. The 3rd and 4th, one of which was by remote conferencing, were about some background knowledge of the project I'm applying to. And the last was the hiring manager who also took me to their cafe for lunch. It seems they just switched to agile workflow so they emphasize a lot on how well you could work under agile environment.

They care about your skills, rather than your background. They have a template which they provide and you got to fill that, everyone is provided a unique number. You are instructed not to disclose any of your personal details in the due course of your interview.
The interview process was two rounds. The first round was a behavioral interview. Straightforward questions, like tell me about the most technically challenging project you have worked on. The second round was a system design interview.
