Cisco IoT

We work with the product team every four months. We define a set of functionalities and technical topics to be implemented over the next 4 months. The Product Owners write the user-stories ahead of time and then the Scrum Masters plan the work in 3- week sprints.

Each sprint begins with a ceremony where we review the previous sprint and the planning for the next one, which typically begins and ends with a demo.

Every dev team attends a daily meeting in the morning and a retrospective at the end of the sprint. We have a weekly meeting on Fridays where each team reports on its progress and difficulties, followed by a technical forum for exchanging point of views with colleagues.

The recruitment process is divided into 4 stages:

• First, a quick interview in English with a Cisco recruiter, who will ask general questions.
• Then a one-hour interview is scheduled with a manager. The aim is: to introduce you to the product, the team, life at Cisco and the benefits. We also discuss your career path to get to know you better.
• A third interview is planned with the dev team you are likely to join. The discussion will revolve around the product and your experience, to determine your technical level or the gap you need to fill.
• A final meeting with our team manager will be scheduled to finalize this process, and the proposal will arrive in the next few days!
