There were Five rounds in total. First round was the 'English Grammar Test' Round. It was computer based. 20 sentences were there which needed to be completed by selecting an appropriate word from the four choices. The second round was verbal skills and English fluency round. An HR asked every candidate to talk on any topic for 5 minutes. Third round was Typing tests and listening tests. Then for the fourth round, there was a mock costumer interaction session . Finally there was a general HR interview.
