Accenture in India

Aug 14, 2026 · Difficult

My recruitment process felt straightforward, mostly because it stayed focused on technical discussion. I had one interview that was explicitly technical, and then the final stage was with a Delivery Manager. What I didn’t get was a formal HR interview in between. The technical portion was the main checkpoint, and then

I had a panel interview with three people: one software engineer, one DevOps person, and one HR representative. The questions were mostly behavioral and situational, and the tone felt pretty standard and straightforward. There was also an online assessment tied to the process, and I didn’t do as well on that part as I’

My process initially felt promising. The HR contact was responsive before the interview, and I ended up doing two technical rounds that each ran about 1 to 1.5 hours. I spent almost the whole day at the company, and I remember being told I’d get an update by the end of the day. Then everything stalled. After that, I h
