I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Capgemini (London, England) in Mar 2010
Interview
I was told the interview process I had was not the norm. But I was interviewed by two individuals one from the technical side and the other from a project management side. The impression I was given was that Cap was a usual consultancy company. The interview was friendly and almost casual and focused on seeing if I would fit in the company.

My Capgemini interview process included aptitude, coding, technical, and HR rounds. I solved programming problems, answered questions on Java, DBMS, OOPs, and networking, and discussed my projects, internships, and strengths. The interviewers were professional and friendly. The experience improved my confidence, communication skills, problem-solving ability, and technical knowledge.
The interview process went very smoothly and was well organized. It included 2 technical rounds, 1 managerial round, and 1 HR round. The technical interviews focused on Java, Spring Boot, APIs, database concepts, and problem-solving skills. The interviewers were professional, supportive, and provided enough time to explain answers clearly. The managerial and HR rounds were also comfortable and mainly focused on communication, project experience, and overall fit for the role. Overall, it was a positive and professional interview experience.
