The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Infosys in Sep 2011
Interview
Interviewers didn't provide direction re their interests. There was 1 leader on the call to whom the others deferred. The call leader did most of the talking and his reports interjecting inane observations. It did not feel like a company that knew how to hire senior staff.
