I applied through college or university. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at IBM (Greater Noida) in Jan 2017
Interview
It was a pool campus drive at Sharda University, Greater Noida, India. First day, we appeared in online aptitude test(18 ques from series & 18 ques from aptitude ) and business communication skill test(20 ques in 22 minutes with no timer on computer screen).The level of test was not tough but each question has 2 min 15 sec to solve so you need to be calm and believe on yourself. There was huge elimination in this round but once you cleared this round you have done 90% to become an IBMer.I was very happy to clear this round.
After online test, document verification done on the same day and we called for the interview after one day. All reached there on time and there was 12 separate interview panel. Persons from IBM team allotted the panel no. to each student and process was very transparent.I appeared for interview after waiting approx one hour and my interview(Tech+HR) was approx 25 minutes long.
After interview, I asked for biometric and they told us final result will be mailed to you.Students who did not clear the interview told on the same day and no biometric process for them.Finally, i received my mail after three days and it was a memorable day for me.Thank you IBM!.

Question 1
The one thing that they asked me was what technology are u familiar with that IBM uses
The process was okay but the result of the interview took so much time. NO reply to the mails as well. interview was offline and has 3 different rounds. one language round, then coding round and then interview.
First round was a language round that was conducted online. We were asked multiple simple questions in English to test our listening, speaking and reading skills. The next round was a coding assessment round. We were shown two questions of easy-medium level difficulty from the competitive coding website Hacker Rank. The 3rd round was a behavioral assessment round where we were given 5 questions and for each question we were allotted 5 mins to answer before the system automatically submits and goes to the next question. The questions were similar to "Explain about a situation where your leadership allowed for a problem to be solved" etc. The last round was the interview round where they asked both technical and non technical questions. The technical questions that were asked where from the projects we have made that were noted down on our resumes.
