Interviewed Jul 2010 in Mumbai (India) (took a day)
Interview process is quite simple. As i was interviewed as EP (Experienced Professional), I have to go through only technical round which lasted for around 40 minutes. Questions were very basic and nothing difficult.
Next round was managerial round. Its more of a formality than a round. Make sure you ask the questions about the project you will be working on, work location and for which client you will be working with.
If you are going for TCS walk-ins then make sure you have booked the entire day for TCS as they take quite lot of time to complete the interview process.

Interviewed Mar 2010 in Bangalore (India) (took a day)
2 rounds of interview
First -aptitude test
Second- HR/Technical
Aptitude round consists of verbal analysis,quantitative and basic maths. Most of the questions where tricky but easy to solve. Verbal can be compared to GRE.
In HR round they basically ask basics of the graduating subjects and a puzzle and one thing they mainly ask about your future plans. Being patient answering calmly and confidently would help a lot.

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Chennai (India) (took 2 days)
This was placement through campus. We had a written exam of 150 minutes. It was psychometric and mathematical in nature. Questions were tough.
After shortlisting for this stage there was a panel interview with 2 panel members one of whom was an HR and the other was usually a business analyst or some one from a project within the company. Interview lasted 45 mins, they grilled me on my resume and various projects I had done during my under-graduation phase.Questions included how i faced and overcame challenges in my work and why TCS and would I be willing to relocate?

1) Typical interview goes for 30 mins and it starts with behaviorial questions and eventually gets down to the technical details.
2) Though the position might not need technical expertize, make sure that you are prepared to answer technical interview questions
3) It will help to inquire in advance about the product you will support and know the competitors. Have a perspective on why TCS product might be better based on the clients and other details.
