It was a campus hire.
All eligible students were given a test which had basic quantitative aptitude, logical reasoning and verbal questions. pretty easy but you need to manage time.
Results were announced in an hour.
Next was technical interview. The questions they ask basically depends on the interviewer. I was asked a lot of technical questions mostly programming, puzzles and given different scenarios to test how I handle difficult situations. It lasted about 30-40 mins I guess.
Soon after that I was sent for the HR interview. There was no elimination in the tech interview round.
HR included questions like tell me about yourself, why igate, questions on my strength and weaknesses. Examples of why I thought that they were my strengths and alot of questions like that. Then she discussed the the location and the timings of work and thats it.
i got the offer letter after a month.
