Interviewed Apr 2011 in Reston, VA (took a day)
It was easy at first, but then the interviews became tricky. I feel that they base their interviews based on what they find in the behavioral interviews rather than the skills-based interviews. If they want you, they hire you immediately. If they don't, prepare to wait, and wait, and wait.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took a day)
Interview process was slow. Had 70 candidates interviewed in a single day. If you don't know a question, sound positive. They need candidates who look enthusiastic so that they can undergo the training successfully. Be courteous during the HR interview. It is a cakewalk. Be truthful and don't fake. They can easily understand from your expressions. And finally be patient. My interview was the last of all 70 candidates and had to wait for 6 hours.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took a day)
After a placement test which was more about patience than about intelligence there was a GD. After that came the interviews. Very very easy interviews. There were two rounds. The tech interviewer asked very easy and basic questions. The HR round was actually harder. As in they try and get you under pressure. Just have to be cool and answer them appropriately.
