Cisco has been made aware of several active recruiting scams claiming to be from recruiters at Cisco. Please be advised that any communication from Cisco about careers will:

  • be in direct response to an application you have submitted through the company career site
  • begin with screening or an interview
  • originate from a Cisco email address, and will
  • be conducted across email, phone, or WebEx

Cisco will never make a job offer without conducting an interview process or ask you for money in any way. If you have been requested to apply for a role or have received an offer from a site other than https://jobs.cisco.com, do not provide any personal identifying information, including your Social Security or other personal identifying number, birth certificate, banking information, driver's license, or passport.
