What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Keep it more similar to real world problems.
I started the process of applying for Cisco GVSE in November 2018 and was not hired until October 2019. I thought the interview process ok, but very long time until I was given formal offer letter even though it was relayed to me that I would be hired in April of 2019.
Review from Sales Dept
I have never interviewed with our company, I was part of an acquisition in the days before Cisco had really put a good process in place for acquisitions. We had a lot of problems moving into Cisco's infrastructure the first year.
Review from IT Dept
was okay but could be more geared towards acquiring talent
Review from IT Dept
Provide clear target date of decision and share the status frequently
Review from Business Development Dept
Make it fair based on ability rather than ethnicity
