Gurgaon, HaryanaPosted Jul 2018 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process started with a written test that lasted about an hour.

It felt intense right away: I had roughly fifteen technical questions and had to write two programs—one that required solid logic and another that was more challenging. A lot of the focus was clearly on being technically strong.

After that, I moved into face-to-face rounds. I first met a team leader in a technical discussion, then I went through another technical face-to-face with a different team leader. After the technical rounds, the remaining steps were managerial and then a director stage where puzzles were expected. There was also an HR round, and the whole setup felt unusually well
