I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Tata Consultancy Services (Santa Cruz, CA) in Mar 2016
Interview
Quick, easy, they came to campus recruiting, signed up for a "time slot" and then had an offer by email the next week after a quick couple phone conversations with a recruiter.
Phone conversations were more about logistics, no real follow up questions.
In person interview was on campus, with a recruiter and two "engineers" asking me various questions. They mainly seemed concerned with me being able to work in the US, and willing to relocate to Ohio/wherever they wanted to send me, not so much my intelligence or interviewing skills. But, they do have a minimum GPA requirement, 3.0, so if you have a 3.0 or higher, you pretty much have a job with them if you're willing to take a pay cut and work random parts of the US.

I applied in-person. I interviewed at Tata Consultancy Services (Chennai) in Jul 2026
Interview
The interview was comparatively easy. Most of the questions were basic and directly related to the topics mentioned on the resume. The interviewer focused on verifying whether the candidate genuinely understood the technologies and projects they had listed, rather than asking advanced or unexpected questions. They asked fundamental questions such as explaining projects, the technologies used, design decisions, basic programming concepts, and core computer science subjects relevant to the resume. There were very few trick questions. If you have a clear understanding of everything you've included on your resume and can explain it confidently with examples, you should be well prepared. The key is to avoid listing skills or technologies that you cannot explain in detail, because the interviewer may ask follow-up questions on any item mentioned in your resume.
