Question 1
previous experiences about managing engineering departments
J'ai postulé en personne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Cisco
Entretien
Managers in Cisco are not very hands-on. They expect good solid experience for handling several reports. First line manager have 1 0+ reports and second line around 15+.
So, it is expected that managers show composure and more importantly situations that they have handled before like lay offs and recruitment etc
J'ai postulé via une autre source. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Cisco (New York, NY) en janv. 2023
Entretien
Overall, very "interesting" interview process. Initial recruiter call included some comments about how if I didn't want the job at any point, that I need to let him ASAP so he doesn't look bad to his managers. As for the hiring manager interview, questions were very easy and straightforward. But overall, it felt like I was being judged based upon their own rules and expectations, instead of my experience so far as a manager. I am glad these signs appeared though before I spent more time interviewing, as it doesn't seem like a welcoming place to work.
