I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Directi (Bengaluru) in Jun 2016
Interview
I'd 3 telephonic interviews and 1 face-to-fact before being rejected in the demo test. Right from the initial e-Mail from HR, I'd a nice experience with DirectI. The telephonic interview rounds were moderate-to-difficult in nature. The demo round was beyond my expertise level and I couldn't complain considering the role I was applying for. The interviewers were professional enough to take time, to discuss the answers back to me. I recommend DirectI to freshers as well as experienced.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most of the telephonic rounds had a question from the Networking side, whether its OSI Layer or routing or switching. As its primarily a web-based company, I was asked on web and db scale out, with architecture discussions.

Interview
A very practical approach towards filtering and subsequently interviewing candidates. Friendly recruitment panel with the utmost focus on ascertaining and verifying in depth the technical aptitude of candidates, not just in theory but in its real-world applications as well. Interview not based on stock questions; instead, design questions and problematic scenarios for troubleshooting were posed with variations done on the fly.
