I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at John Deere (Pune) in Jan 2008
Interview
During the last semester of my Bachelor's education, several companies across India came on campus to recruit students who would graduate in 6 months. John Deere, Pune (India) was one of them. I appeared for their 'entrance test'. It consisted of verbal ability and quantitative ability (GRE-like) questions in one section and Mechanics of Material / Engine engineering / Design related objective type questions in the other section. The answers were probably checked by some computerized system as the results were out in less than a couple of hours. Based on the performance in this test, about 30 candidates from my college were short-listed for the interview. I was one of them.
Before the interview we were asked to fill up forms with typical HR-type questions like 'describe your strengths / weaknesses; describe your career goals' etc. The interview was primarily based on the same questions. There were 2 people interviewing me. One from HR and other from as I later understood Manufacturing Services. After all the 30 odd interviews were over and there was some sort of closed session of the interviewing team, the names of the candidates who would be offered jobs were called out.
