I applied online. I interviewed at Cisco (Amsterdam) in Jan 2023

Question 1
Can you give an example from an event where you failed?
The recruiter was great, though we didn’t speak much.
After I learned the salary was 55k with an expectation to have your own car and be in the office at 730 am, I withdrew pretty quickly.
The company should be embarrassed to pay so poorly. In no world should that accompany a 730 AM start time and expectation for your own vehicle.
