Interviewed Jan 2011 in Pune (India) (took a day)
There were a written test organized by Syntel in Our College, but there were no representative from Syntel, However the were online.
Written test were from English an Reasoning mostly and very little questions from Quant.
Selected students went for the interview process as a pool campus interview.
In the interview there were three rounds starting from Group Discussion then Technical Interview and finally Personal Interview or HR Interview.
Every round was elimination round.
In the Group Discussion they took a group of 10 to discuss a familiar topic. It was quite easy, but only one judge were there to select students for the next round.
Selected students gone through Tecnical interview followed b HR Interview if selected.
Interviewer were experienced, so atleast I am satisfied with Interview process.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Mumbai (India) (took a day)
Overall interview process was good. there were two rounds both technical.
I got the initial offer letter letter after clearing both rounds.but then it took around 3 months to get the actual offer letter and the joining date.
This is the worst thing about Syntel. They always keep selected people on hold for months and years( for freshers).
Other Details
The interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview.

Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Its plain bargaining - Syntel does not have professionals to doing this task of speaking to a prospective employee. If you think that you have a great resume and intend to sell yourself here ...this is would be my advice - The strength of the negotiation lies in the tenacity of the negotiator.

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Mumbai (India) (took 5+ weeks)
- First round was with HR leadership hiring executive {telephonic interview}
- Second round was with DGM {telephonic interview}
- Third round - 1 to 1 with DGM
- Fourth round - 1 to 1 with HR Head
- Fifth round - 1 to 1 with Head of Operations
Advice : female candidates need to be careful as the reason for rejection was 'appearance not fit for role". People who have worked in performance driven need to groom and be very stylish for Syntel manager role as promotion are appearance driven.
People : very approachable and friendly
Office : No visual treats, just come work and go, no rest rooms to sit and relax
work culture : Seems to be male dominant and not having a value system
