I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Thomson Reuters (Bengaluru) in Mar 2014
Interview
I got a call from the HR with reference to my resume in a Job portal and scheduled a F2F interview on a weekend. The interview happened in the Yamlur road office in Bangalore.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview process was good but the questions were too theoritical. For a 6+ years professional in Java/J2EE they had a couple of ladies with barely 3 years of experience in the panel.
1) What is the Servlet class hierarchy?
2) What will happen if you call Servlet's destroy method from init method?
3) Design a class diagram and write the high level logic for a game of chess
I found most of the questions were from a website in the list of J2EE interview questions. And these ladies were not ready to take any answer other than whatever they see in the website or think is correct.
Please have people with good understanding on technology and enough experience in the panel

Question 1
About AWS services like EC2, S3, CLOUD WATCH, lambda
The worst experience I have ever had with any company. I applied for a role in August, I initially started the process with a recruiter and when through the initial call. Got a rejection said the role was filled. A week later the role was reposted. I got in touch again and we restarted the process.
We did another HR/Recruiter screening, and then entered a loop where their Polish based (outsourced?) Talent Partner don't even have Calendly links to share. After 3-4 weeks trying to schedule a call with the hiring manager, we finally found a slot.
On the day of the interview, no one joined.
Absolutely outrageous and unprofessional. Suffice to say, you must be desperate for a job to be willing to get through their interview process.
1- Solve 3 different coding problems in your preferred language.
2- Code pair call to solve one problem in your preferred language.
3-Technical interview with experience developers in the team.
4-Call with the manager.
