I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at HCL (Cary, NC) in Aug 2014
Interview
I went thru a staffing agency. I had to get a Drug screening done. I passed the Drug Screening. I then met with 2 different teams that were hiring. Had a face to face with the first team. I didn't like the hours of the first team so I met with the 2nd team.I had a face to face interview with the second team, I then took a computer test. Score on computer test determines knowledge and if you are a good fit for the position.

Interview
Quick and easy. Had one interview and then a phone screen. Then was sent a job offer. Was spooked at first thinking it was a scam. But that is just a part of their process.
Interview with HR company was ok and I was supposed to wait for a call direct from HCL at certain hours, but I've never rang. A complete waste of time...
Written test is easy. But it required deep knowledge of IT fundamentals. There is one written exam and two interview rounds. Technical round is the one you should be focusing at.
