Interviewed Nov 2010 in Washington, DC (took 4+ weeks)
The interview was very well organized. The people I met were generally friendly and in some cases funny. They interviewed all the candidates together on one Saturday. The office in Arlington was very nice with whiteboards on almost every wall. After the introduction they split the group. Half of us did a solo case study while the other half did a group case study in front of consultants. We then had lunch and switched. The case studies were each an hour long but they are really watching you the whole day.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Gurgaon, Haryana (India) (took 4 days)
- Got e-mail from Sapient HR and i applied for the position
- She called me the next day and asked me about my project, exeperiance (30 minutes). During conversation I got to know that I probably do not have the required experiance. However, she told me that I should get interviewed
- After few days, I was asked to have an interview at their Gurgaon office
- The first round consisted of a Case Study wherein I was asked to write about the scope, assumptions, constraints, risks, staffing, testing strategy, etc (basically a QA Project Plan). The case study was for 75 minutes; however i took 90 minutes and no one really hurried me in completing it
- Then 1:1 interview happened. It went on for another 90 minutes. I was asked about almost everything related to the project plan and how I came up with that plan
- Once the round was over, the HR informed me that I cleared the technical round and there is another round which will happen some other time
- Although initially scheduled to be a 1:1 round, I managed to convince the HR to have the final management round over the telephone
- The telephonic round lasted about 45 minutes and again I was asked about my experiance and various real life scenarios were discussed.
Although the process went well all throughout, I was not offered the job due to lack of my experiance (in years).

Interviewed Oct 2010 (took a day)
I did an interview through campus career services. There was an information session the day before the interview. The interview itself was 1 on 1, and consisted mostly of walking through my resume and doing personality questions. The interviewer was nice. I tried to follow up, but received no replies. I assume my application is no longer being considered.

Interviewed Nov 2010 (took 3 weeks)
I got a mail from th Sapient HR about a role suitable for me.I replied her back then I got a call from the HR.It was almost like telephonic interview she asked me a lot about Project Management, the fdifferent kind of roles I have worked.
Then another interview was scheduled where I was given a case study of a client requirement.
I had one hour to work out in the white board, my understanding of the project and project scope.
I had to draw up a project plan and a logical architecture diagram. Had to talk about the constraints,assumptions,risks. Basically I had to pitch for a project.
The interviewer mocked as the client and it was interesting. I enjoyed the whole process
