I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cisco (Raleigh, NC) in Jun 2022
Interview
The interviewing process was extremely fair and laid back. First interview was more of an intro call where there were some technical questions asked but not many. The second interview was a more technical interview and the third was with the hiring manager.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
BGP/MPLS/OSPF questions were the main portion of the technical interview.
Thorough interview process, beginning with a deep technical interview about my experience and expertise, followed by a managers interview about higher level topics. After 2 interviews I was given an offer which I accepted. Previous interview experiences with Cisco were similar, with just the interviewers being different.

Question 1
Give us an example of a major project you designed and delivered, including what went well and what you'd do differently next time.
Basically the process was very streamlined 3 interviews in one day. HR-Technical-Technical. I would say if you have knowledge in networking it is good quality interview and demanding enough but not too much,
