Interviewed Mar 2012 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
I applied for this position in the job portal and got an interview call in 3 days. They asked me for in-person interview in Lisle - Chicago.
There were 2 persons in the interview. The questions were very simple and generic. I think they were more interested in seeing the hands-on experience. I also felt that there focus was not on technical skills. They were looking for a complete package.

Interviewed Jan 2011 (took 4+ weeks)
With employee referral i got a call from Infy HR in around 10 days after my CV was referred by a friend.
HR called and asked basic details about experience, current /Expected Salary etc, Also they asked me if i am open to relocate as i was in Delhi at that time. I was scheduled for a telephonic Technical Interview by HR and I recieved the call on the mentioned date and time.
There were 2 interviewers (Both Technical Architects, one of which to whom i reported finally), the were very friendly and patient and suggested hints for possible solution to questions i was getting stuck at, it was very helpful while I could get to correct chain of thoughts. Interview lasted 1 hour and in end they answered my questions on group and project i was being hired for. They asked about my onsite preferences, my relocation stuff if selected. I was told HR will get back to me.
Then after few days around 5-6 days i came to know that I was through with technical round and will have HR round face to face at Delhi. (Later i came to know the two interviewers were debating over offering me Tech lead or tech Analyst, one of them felt i had lesser experience for a Lead)
Then i was aware of HR interview scheduled in Delhi after around 3 weeks of 1st interview, i was aware i am only left with one HR interview, however one guy from HR called me few days before interview and said there might be another technical round face to face as well.
On day of interview Infy HR had my data and were aware on mentioning HR's name (Guy who called me) that i already had 1st round on call. Hence i was sent for 2nd round of interview F2F with 2 Technical Architects again.. This time questions were mix of technical and behaviourial. After around 45 min to 1 hour I was asked to wait outside.
This was entire day process in total after around 1 hour they told all people waiting to have their lunch and come back.
After which i had my discussion with HR where salary was discussed and that was the worst part. The HR asked my expected figure and said this is what we can offer this is where you need to negotiate.
I said yes and also told HR i have another offer at hand but to to be joined in 20 days, HR notes that on my Documents and said we will try to close it as soon possible.
To my pleasant surprise my offer was released in 5 days straight and constantly HR was in touch with me.

Negotiation Details
They have offered me 8.5 when I was having 7. I did not accept the same and have asked 10.
I was asked to justify the same and I did which I cannot put in here.
After that I came away from there.
After some time HR guys called back and say that are ok with the figure and offered me.
They offered the job in the new Uppal campus in Hyderabad
Advice from my side: Stick to your pay figure.

Interviewed Sep 2010 in Bangalore (India) (took a day)
Prior to attending the interview, i had enormous respect for Infosys because of discipline and process followed by them.It is one of very few reputed firms where hierarchal growth is very transparent and a truly an equal opportunity provider for all it's employees.
Got a call to attend the interview on Sep 24th '10. Went to their electronics city campus 2:00 pm. After filling the the application form (i strongly suggest you fill it prior going to the campus and carry a printout), i waited till 4:30 for interview. Eventually a technical panel member called me for a discussion and the gentleman was very polite and positive in approach. During the interview, he was trying to extract the answers from me rater than move on to the next questions. Since i fall for the technology lead position in .NET, i was asked on SQL Joins, Abstract Factory Pattern ( Not a straight forward question, but with example), Enterprise Architect, WCF, TFS Server, and few basic .NET questions. Interview went fine and later i was asked to wait for HR interview.
Here comes the mystery part. I have quoted my current and expected salary from Infy in the application form. The HR member referred that and said they can offer me even more. He appreciated my current experience (nearly 7 years in one firm,) and the technical feedback which was very positive. But he cited that my engineering percentile was not upto the mark which is a fact (But i am still unsure, why is this considered even after 7 years of solid IT experience in a CMM level 5 company. Above that i got a call from Infosys for the interview only after submitting my percentile details, if it was a criteria then i should not have received a call letter ). After initial discussion, the HR member said they will intimate me about the decision in 7-10 working days and i started to leave. then in less than 10 minutes i got a call from the HR member asking me to come back. I went back and he said they had a quick chat with the HR manager and they are recruiting me and i will be receiving the offer letter in 7-10 working days. TO MY SURPRISE & SHOCK, AFTER 8 WORKING DAYS I RECEIVE A MAIL FROM INFOSYS STATING WE ARE UNABLE TO OFFER YOU ANY POSITION CURRENTLY THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING. Though i was little disappointed in not making even after faring well, but what saddened me was the way things were handled after the HR member confirmed my selection into INFOSYS.
I assume there would have a been a communication gap, during internal discussions before finalising the list of selected employees, but certainly expect better from INFOSYS. Anyway, i am sure these sort of things dont happen frequently to everyone. It's just misfortune.

It was technical + managerial interview. Overall it was good and based on day to day tasks of a senior developer. They were evaluating on different scenarios that might come and the action I would take on the same. It was one of the best interviews.

Interviewed Jan 2009 in Pune (India) (took 2 days)
HSBC is the company I went for the interview. It has an extensive interview process. For folks less than 5 years of exp we need to clear a written exam. Face to Face interview also went good. But the salary they offer is way way way below what one expects after a company jump..

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Bellevue, WA (took a day)
They brought me in to the Bellevue office. I filled out their application form and releases for background check. Then I interviewed in a room with 2 people, a developer and a manager type. They asked detailed questions and asked me to write programming logic out on sheets of white paper. They did not use the white board.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
Compensation they offered was lower than I required. Benefits were quite on the low end compared to other companies I've seen. Also, the job was for a type of position I have not done before, and I was not sure I would be doing as much programming as I'd like and possibly more travel and odd hours than I prefer.
