I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at IBM in Sep 2011
Interview
I was contacted by them shortly after graduating. There were technical as well as regular interviews. Everyone was very friendly. They admitted to it being a job that you'd have to dedicate a lot to. My biggest advice to those like me, with no industry experience is to have as much enthusiasm as you can during the interviews.

Question 1
Some technical questions that have to do with technologies a fresh graduate can't have experience with yet.
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at IBM (Markham, ON) in Aug 2011
Interview
I applied for internship position at IBM and got an interview call from the manager. but before that i was asked to write an IPATO test which is not technical at all but it just judges ur aptitude. Most of the students do well in test, It appears hard but i think cut off is very low.
Interview itself was telephonic and all behavioural. Manager was very mature and experienced. She asked me all about my resume and projects and my role in different projects. and how i fulfilled them. No technical question at all.
So make sure u r writng ur resume very thoroughly. she was pretty impressed with me and I even asked her for a feedback which was positive.
I am waiting to hear from them and I guess IBM is a pretty good company to start a career with.
All the best to you all who are aplying.
