I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Patni Computer Systems in Jan 2008
Interview
Recruitment Process (Filtration at every stage) - For every 100 people who attended the drive
For example, 100 people attended the drive.
- Entrance Test : Aptitude/GK (100% attended, 40% selected) ---- 150, 60
- Group Discussion (100% attended, ~50% selected) ---- 60, 32
- Personal Interview (100% attended, ~25% selected) --- 32, 9
In this case, 9 people were selected. However, this can vary based on time of hiring, class size, college, company, requirements and so on
