Intial round was the aptitude round.There were a couple of puzzles ans quizzes asked too. There were multiple rounds of interviews to check technical capabilities, business domain understanding, cultural fit, presentation skills, oral communication skills.all interviewers seem to be well- prepared with specific set of questions depending on the job requirement. Have a good knowledge on things on your resume. Be confident. Speak about achievements and projects.
