I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at IBM (Durgapur, West Bengal) in Oct 2017
Interview
It was an on-campus mass recruitment and the process took almost 2 days. First round was online aptitude test consisting of numerical, logical and data interpretation questions. Students clearing the cutoff had to sit for the 2nd round aptitude test consisting English and few management(case study) related questions. Timing was pretty much crucial in both the tests and skipping more than 3 questions wasn't allowed.No negative marking was there.

Question 1
The one thing that they asked me was what technology are u familiar with that IBM uses
The process was okay but the result of the interview took so much time. NO reply to the mails as well. interview was offline and has 3 different rounds. one language round, then coding round and then interview.
First round was a language round that was conducted online. We were asked multiple simple questions in English to test our listening, speaking and reading skills. The next round was a coding assessment round. We were shown two questions of easy-medium level difficulty from the competitive coding website Hacker Rank. The 3rd round was a behavioral assessment round where we were given 5 questions and for each question we were allotted 5 mins to answer before the system automatically submits and goes to the next question. The questions were similar to "Explain about a situation where your leadership allowed for a problem to be solved" etc. The last round was the interview round where they asked both technical and non technical questions. The technical questions that were asked where from the projects we have made that were noted down on our resumes.
