Thanks, these input mean a lot
I would recommend not showing up and applying elsewhere
I agree, don’t show up.
And why would you say that?
They’re most likely in engineering or services portion of Cisco. TME is pre sales and is a solid role. Just make sure you’re getting into the right BU.
TME role has nothing to do with coding. You will be interface between Engineering and Marketing. Main job is to coordinate with engineering team to translate marketing ask to a feature or product. Need expertise in all features of product and deployment. Usually Cisco don't hire fresh IT Graduates for this job as they expect CCIE level of knowledge in networking or security.
In general be prepared for coding and system design. Most folks under prepare for system design http://www.practicecodinginterview.com/blog/2018/8/18/the-system-design-interview http://www.practicecodinginterview.com/blog/2019/5/20/the-coding-interview
How do you know that he is applying for a coding position?
“Technical” in the job title and “Engineer”
