I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at FIS in Feb 2021
Interview
Very interesting interview process, they did a deep dive on one of my GitHub projects to pick my brain about and asked questions based on what they saw (this was during the 2nd interview). Overall the hiring team was very pleasant to talk to.
However, their internal recruiter that reached out to me was absolutely awful. He alone makes me think poorly of the company as to how I might be treated had I received an offer. He failed to reply to me through email, voice mail, and even text messages when I sent them in response to receiving one from him.
At least have the common decency to give me some form acknowledgement other than ghosting me especially after a second interview. I will not be interviewing for FIS in the future.

I applied online. I interviewed at FIS in Jan 2021
Interview
Very straightforward. I had three interviews that were quick and to the point. They asked standard interview questions plus questions relating to what I knew about the specific products I would be working with. The hardest part was the final interview with upper level management.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at FIS (Mohali, Punjab) in Dec 2020
Interview
It all started with a call from HR and he arranged virtual interview over zoom within 2 3 days. It was a good technical interview and was around OOPs concepts, core java and selenium concepts. After 2 days got a call from HR stating you have cleared technical interview and he scheduled one with manager. 1 day before managerial round got call from HR stating manager is not available and postponed interview for 1 week. Finally after a week had managerial round and it went smooth. There was no update post that for 2 3 days, no response from HR on emails as well. I called HR after 4 days and he mentioned you have cleared managerial round and he is waiting for some final confirmation from the hiring manager to proceed further. Again no update from HR for 1 week and when I called he mentioned now they are not hiring for Mohali location and looking for someone in Chennai location and he can't proceed further (everything on calls post managerial round, he didn't bother to email or call proactively to inform the same). So everything was done by now and I joined another organization and suddenly i got call from HR again asking if I can still join, i asked him to process and give me offer letter for which he mentioned he will get back in 2 days. Again it's been more than a month now and I never got any call or email from him.
So long story short it was a pathetic experience and was just a time waste. After checking with multiple people working there or have gone through interview in FIS Mohali, I found out that its very common here. Hiring team is very unprofessional and have no ethics, just ruining a global name.
P.S. - It never went till any compensation discussion and hence no question of budget constraint as I was always open for salary negotiation.
