Interviewed Sep 2011 in Bangalore (India) (took 2+ weeks)
They had taken around 10 rounds of interviews(may be more as i do not remember). I think it will be better that if they are clear on that what are they looking in candidate as per their requirement instead of going through lengthy process and sending for so many managerial rounds. They could have figured out at some stage whether candidate suits requirement.
Otherwise i enjoyed the interview. interview is moderate, do not remember questions
they concentrate on DS and java,problem solving skills. each one is different round
. insertion,deletion of element into sorted circular list
.programme with so many recusrsive calls was given in c and was asked to find output.(can answer if we check call flows with cool)
.some puzzles on 3 jars and 5 lr water measuring
.java qs are moderate and can be answered. more emphasis on collections internals, reflection,Threading deadlock
. SQL query, why Normalization and deNormalization, differences between inner and outer joins when to use what etc..
everything else good except bad lengthy interview process.. after having 2 telephonic, 5 face to face technical interviews and one HR round for 55 minutes(wonder how come it is so lengthy), one company MD round, latter it was told that everything over and recruiter told one new manager joined in ur team, he would like to speak with you , with that all formalities wil be done. but at the end of this sequel no call no contact.. i also not excited about the offer from them...
but we can give try to attend technical interviews for experience..but at the stage of managerial rounds, its better to clear from them how it goes from then onwards..

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Bangalore (India) (took a day)
The interview with Ariba was a pleasant experience. It consisted of 4 technical rounds of 1 hour each. Each interview was challenging as well as exciting. The interviewers were very interesting people and I wanted to work with every one of them after the interview. You could see they cared for their product and they excited you with their energy.

A recruiter contacted me about the position, and the phone interview was set up with the hiring manager after sending the resume. The phone discussion was for about 30 mins with questions in SQL and java threading and data structures.

diff b/w semaphores and mutex
explain cube, roll
star schema

Interviewed Apr 2007 in Sunnyvale, CA (took 2 days)
I was interviewing for senior java developer position. There was the phone interview by the hiring manager first. Then there was the on site interview from four developers and the hiring manager himself. There were programming questions, java questions, database questions, etc, and I found that they are overall more difficult than average.
