Interviewed May 2012 in Santa Clara, CA (took a day)
Phone interview consists of a programming excercise. Need to log on to their server and complete a BT and linked list program. Should be easy..
Onsite is again programming, and it seems the questions are standard. I regret not looking up online now..
First interview was based on stacks, linked list, arrays, dynamic allocations.. all these basic concepts were touched. I had a feeling the interviewer was not open for design changes, he had a set of things in mind and was just stuck to his plan.
The second interview was kind of weird. I worked in a networking company before, but never did socket programming there.. It has been ages since I wrote the last socket program. And who remembers TCP/IP hand shake.. I dont think they read my resume. I dont see a reason why these questions were asked if the candidate was interested in platforms.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Santa Clarita, CA (took 2 weeks)
basically, it is cisco old boys' playground.
the questions are all simple, e.g.:
Find a missing # from an array
Verify a BST
And remember not to show that you could be smarter than the interviewers, and not to forget agree or compliment them; otherwise...

Interviewed Dec 2011 in San Jose, CA (took 3 weeks)
Please don't bother interviewing here as the VP of customer engineering has zero manners/respect in treating people. If you're a woman in the industry, don't even bother picking up the phone from this company. The process consisted of two over the phone technical interviews which took forever to schedule. Then there was an in person interview with the VP, who I'm not really sure should be in Customer Engineering if he doesn't know how to treat people. [I wonder how he treats his customers]. After the whole interview he finally says they are interested in hiring someone more senior [Why were you interviewing me in the first place? You had my resume with you!]. Then at the end he goes on to say "It must be tough being a woman in the industry, you're lucky to be in the Silicon Valley region as people are more accepting of women engineers."
I have nothing more to say.
