Interviewed Jul 2010 in Chennai (India) (took a day)
the first round consisted of about 20 mins - basic aptitude questions (mathematics, english, logical reasoning) - there were 2 batches each of 15 people.
the second round was a technical interview - 2 panel member, as i was interviewing for Software QA Engineer my questions were very specific to QA - explain methodologies, different models, OSI network layers, efficiency of different testing models, asked me to write test cases/scenarios for any arbitrary scenario. one weird questions (at least it seemed at that moment) - explain the OSI models in real-time on a laptop; here the trick is to explain TCP/IP, network protocols and application and presentation layers.
there were a lot of logical puzzles to be solved.
third round was a senior managers round - 2 panel interview. again logical puzzles, entire work profile (where i was working earlier), what makes me look for other opportunities, growth expected - one main question - are you willing to work in Chennai (INDIA) for the next 2 years.
fourth round - HR process, nothing very grilling - basic questions about background, educational details, what do i expect of this company, willing to work in Chennai (again asked).
after 20 days i got the offer and accepted it.

Interviewed Jul 2008 in Frimley, England (United Kingdom) (took 1+ week)
Interview process was typical of a sales position - very personality-centric, with conversational style of acquiring information about experience. Genesys clearly put a lot of work into preserving their culture and were clearly ensuring that candidates had the "right fit".

Interviewed May 2009 in Melbourne (Australia) (took 1 week)
I was contacted by the a recruiter who said they had received my name as a potential person Genesys was interested in hiring. When speaking to the head of the Prof Services arm he said they email around to their consultants to ask for recommendations of people who would be potential candidates to hire. It was all fairly informal, we discussed what their company strategy was moving forward, the type of work, the culture of the organisation and some initial pay expectancies
