Interviewed Mar 2008 in Charlotte, NC (took 2 days)
I had a technical phone interview. They asked me questions on my experience and specific technical questions related to QA Testing. I think it lasted about 1 hour. I was asked about the SDLC and Requirements. What kind of work I had done on previous projects, etc. The last 15 minutes was just personal. We talked about where I was from and moving from.

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took 3 months)
This is perhaps the most unprofessional invterview process I would have gone through.
I applied to their website sometimes in May '10.
Got the first interview call in July '10.
Never received the call.
Again another HR called me to schedule the interview.
This time I did receive the call.
The questions asked were pretty normal to a bit difficult.
I was told that my feedback would be uploaded in the system and the next round would be telephonic only and I would receive the call within the next one week.
The one week never appeared!!
I called the original HR back after a month or so to know what the status was and to my surprise they said they don't even have access to the system!!!! I urged them to find my profile and somehow they got back with it.
I was told that my status went on hold because there were no requirements!!!!!!!!
After around 2 months I got a call back from some other HR informing me that there was a requirement and I had to upload the required documents(within the same day). I had received the call in the afternoon and had to upload the documents by evening. I told the HR that I didn't have any personal mail access and needed some time to mail the documents back. The HR became adamant and even threatened to revoke my application.
I mailed him all the documents after 2 days when I had the access.
I was told that I would receive the call for discussion pay package, but surprise surprise.... Some another HR mailed me saying that currently there were no requirements at the present.
Again after 15 days, I got the call from them telling me that they had requirements and would like to process my CV.
God knows when would the cat and mouse game ever end....
Please stay out of this company for sure.....
Don't know if they consider the candidates as vegetables in the market or as goats and sheep who would do anything to jump from another company... Pathetic!!!!!!!!!!

Interviewed May 2010 in Bangalore (India) (took 1 week)
Initially I was contacted by the HR to know about my interest for the opening. Then I was given a slot for Telephonic Technical interview, technical interview was not tough at all. After clearing Technical round there was one HR round, which was also telephonic. The HR concentrated mainly on Salary negotiation.

Interviewed Jul 2010 in Manila, City of Manila (Philippines) (took 3 weeks)
They emailed me saying they have a position that match my skill set if im interested then I should send my resume ..After i send my resume they called me right away and ask me to wait for their call next day for initial assesment . The next day they call me again and conduct the interview , After that they told me they will call again .. after 3 days they call again .. dont remember what they ask this time but i think its about my personality . afterwards they told me that they will schedule me for skills interview .. unfortunately I had a sore eyes during that time so I told them that I cannot come in person but they told me its ok they can conduct the interview by phone at lunch so its convenient for me . They did just like that and the interviewer and me talk for about one and a half hour . In the afternoon they called me to said that I pass the skill test and wait for further calls after a week I receive a salary offer from them .. Its quite good considering the salary that i expected so i accept the offer

Interviewed Apr 2010 in Bangalore (India) (took 1 week)
Technical interview would take around 30 minutes in which they just asked the basics
In the HR interview, they tend to ask how you would deal with some particular situation, like conflicts in the team, challenges etc. Also, make sure you browse and read up something on Accenture and why you wanna join

Negotiation Details
They tend to pay more if you have other offer letters to show
