I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Accenture (Indore) in Jan 2011
Interview
its was so simple.. if they need you they will take you if they not, they are not gonna take at any cost.first they had written test and declared the result. all the successful candidate were asked for HR interview post that. and the candidates who cleared both phases were offered the joining letter.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Accenture
Interview
Summary :Very long and inefficient process
Totally unreachable recruiting team either through phone or email
What happened:
Applies through a staffing agency
Got a call after few weeks
Schedules a telephonic interview on x day.
No call comes on x day. Drops a mail to HR contact. No reply.
Next day call comes. Very simple technical questions.
The interviewer seemed to be in a hurry with a lot of backlog of scheduled interviews.
Gives me a positive feedback and tell HR will get back to you.
After few weeks, out of blue HR calls to discuss about package. Decides on a package.
Few days later, receives a call saying a technical face to face is scheduled. Quite surprised n inform the guy that technical round is done.
He replies saying this is manager round. Anyway goes to office for face to face. And the next surprise. I was took to a phone and "face to face" happens over telephone with a manager sitting in a different block. That was actually ridiculous.
After few days, HR calls again, again negotiate package, couldn't decide on a package. asks for documents and eaf to be filled, Tells hr will get back to me to discuss further about package.
N few days later voila, offer letter is there in my mail box.
HR calls, I tell her package negotiations was still undergoing, how come offer is issued.
But the HR who called me has no idea and I don't know the name of HR who contracted me earlier.
Decides I cannot accept an offer which has not been agreed up on with me, offer rejected.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Accenture
Interview
Telephonic interview and it was referral process so it was quite easy and quick.
as it was Referral through my friend it didn't took longer time to complete the process.
I have not traveled from base location at all to attend interview and everything happened simply on the telephone.
