BengaluruPosted Mar 2011 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had a short, low-friction interview experience with minimal rounds and mostly straightforward questions.

Written exam / initial assessment — a not-too-tough written test that kicked things off; in a separate experience, I only had a single structured interview.
Recruiter/HR round — one HR-led round with just a couple of basic math questions (aptitude/set theory style).
One interview with DS/puzzles — a structured session focused on normal puzzles plus a data structures question. Outcome: I didn’t get an offer, but the timeline and difficulty were described as very easy-to-easy, making it feel more like screening than elimination.
