I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Accenture (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Sep 2014
Interview
The interview process was very clumsy. It took almost 4 months to get the offer letter. Lot of chaos in between. My application got archived once, even after clearing the interview, then they called me for the interview again and this time the interviewer was from different technology so it was rescheduled after 2 week. Overall the experience was really very bad, but then it depends on case to case basis. Accenture really need to work hard in this area.

Question 1
Questions were simple related to my work and technology.
On campus interview held in college, interview went for 15 minutes.
Everything went well, asked few hygiene questions. Confidence did good to me would advice to have the same during interview.
Prepare HR answers well along with technical questions
1 Pre-screen, 1 phone interview, and 1 in-person (3 different meetings). Basically painless, except I was made to do a case study even though I was interviewing for a software engineering position. Not a difficult case study though, basically just work through it and explain your thought process to the interviewer.
Online test - where you have to answer some technical questions
Technical round - where they will ask you about your prior and existing experience
Managerial round - regarding your future goals and difficulties
HR round - Salary and perks
