I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Ciena (Frankfurt am Main) in Sept 2022
Interview
All usual and normal: experience, vision of the future, why Ciena, some technical details, market situation in Germany, future projects for major mobile operators. Nice, polite, no issues. There were couple of interviews actually, with several different stakeholders - all went well.
