I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Capgemini (Bengaluru) in Nov 2015
Interview
First things first, if you have to take telephonic interview, then what is the point of calling the candidate to your office. Then the interviewer, to start with his intro to me ,was so proud that he was working for 6 years in Capgemini(Brownie points for loyalty). Then he was a proud java certified developer. Awesome. Then interview started and he got stuck in String comparison. He did not move ahead the term Stringpool, one of the very basic concepts of Java. He didn't understand what I was trying to tell him. And interview over with a comment that I don't even know the basics. Add to the insult of Java, he was sitting in Netherlands.
Please, take the interview of the interview panel before putting them in that panel. They do nothing more than wasting everybody's time.

It was a two days process with three rounds, on day one their was a written test consisting of aptitude, verbal reasoning(and other similar stuff). the shortlisted candidates are called for a typing speed test which was followed by a telephonic round in which we have to repeat the sentence that the machine was speaking(accent used by machine was neither British nor american).
