      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cisco in Dec 2014

      Interview

      Interview was conducted over screen sharing software. It began with reviewing of resume and questions about past projects. Interviewer was pretty friendly and gave good feed back. Interviewed with a division within Cisco called Insieme. During the interview I learned that they were looking for mobile dev experience, which i had none of at the time. After the first interview i never heard back from the recruiter. I reached out a few weeks later and was told they had selected another applicant for the position.
