Interview
Hiring process in good at CA.
Initially you will get a call from HR to fix the appointment. Sometime HR might ask you few screening questions which are provided the interview panel.
Generally first round will be a telephonic discussion with the team you are getting interviewed for.
If you clear the telephonic round you will be asked to come for F2F discussion.
Depending on the team you may have 2-4 technical discussions on coding, problem solving etc.
If you clear all the technical rounds then you will have final discussion with the Manager/Director of team. That is generally a formal discussion on salary/checking the attitude. Sometimes they ask few questions related to their product like on Database.
Screening/Interview was rather unorganized, but after the initial discussion it took some direction.
Despite the weird format at the beginning, the interviewer was professional and senior, so we had interesting technical discussion

Had two people in a coupe of rounds. It was in person
A phone interview with HR and for the on site 3 separate interviews; one with the managers and two other interviews for the technical questions. During the interview, some people on the panel were very rude and their behavior was completely unethical in a way I wanted to leave the interview!! Sometimes the interview itself reveals the company culture easily and I was lucky enough to notice that before it was too late.
