Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Gurgaon, Haryana (India) Jan 2013 – Reviewed Feb 21, 2013
Interview Details –
I had one of the best interview experiences with Sapient. They have a very professional HR team which never cease to please you.
I was referred by a Sapient employee and I got a call after 2 days. I had a brief discussion with the senior HR member about my role and responsibilities and why I want to join Sapient. Within a week they scheduled another round of interview which was a technical one. I had a discussion over Skype and it was quite good.
I got a call from HR team that I cleared the technical round and I have to face another round which is more like a personality round. This round was very good...interviewer asked me many behavioral questions and it was easy for me cuz I prepared for it.
Interview Question – Can't think of it now but all questions are good. Answer Question

Interview Details – HR personnel who contacted me explained the entire interview process in detail. The good thing is that they provide Taxi pick up and drop for interview if you need it. I did have to wait for some time at reception area before being called.Interview process was held on a weekend at gurgaon. Technical interview consists of 2 parts, First they give you a problem statement for which you need to develop a system. While grading they look at design approach, completeness, test cases, basically your thought process in tackling the question. Next part consist of discussion on your design along with other questions.
Interview Question – Though they may list things like spring J2EE in JD, they don't ask anything from it usually, their entire focus is in Core Java, specially multi threading. Answer Question

Senior Associate, Technology Level I at Sapient
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Gurgaon, Haryana (India) Sep 2010 – Reviewed Dec 10, 2012
Interview Details –
I attended a walk in - arranged and called by the HR.
Smart, friendly hiring team.
First Round - a design and coding exercise: had to write down code for a web app on pen and paper. I realized on finishing up my code that I had created the app successfully.
Second Round - a telephonic round with tech panel - held in Sape Gurgaon offices but the interviewers were in NOIDA . The scanned sheets with my code for the first round was shared with them. Explained the code, design. Questions were based on the app, design choices, technology choices, java/orm/j2ee/framework. It went great. i learned here that mine was the only complete solution submitted that day
Third Round - Managerial Round : Went on for more than an hour , soft / interpersonal/ leadership/communication skills were tested. Approach towards problems/ people tested.
Interesting discussion , this one. Again , was good.
We were asked to leave for the day - however the HR people let me know that they had heard good things about me and that they'd be happy to have me join them soon.
Interview Question – I had to elaborate on the challenges I faced as a team lead. Specifically managing interpersonal conflicts. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – This was the part I did not like. I was given decent hike but only after tedious negotiation. and the process took days! though I did accept the offer, i felt i deserved a slightly better deal.
