I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at American Express (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Jun 2015
Interview
3 rounds - 1 with TL, 2 with Manager, 3 with HR. The skill set of most of tenured people here is very obsolete. Further, the information given in the interview about the work was nowhere close to the actual work done here.
