I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Persistent Systems in Oct 2015
Interview
First they came to our college for first round which had 50 questions out of which 8-9 were aptitude and rest all technical including topics like c, operating system, networks, data structure but the questions were basic and easy. After completing this section, 2nd section consists of one coding question which was medium level not too hard given 20 minutes and then last section "write thrilling experience of ur life" given 10 minutes. I cleared this level and then there were 2 technical interview round and one hr. In round 1, they asked basic c program "finding largest in array", "prime no from 1 to 100", "print asterisk in triangle pattern". And then asked basic puzzles and db and then asked some more coding concepts. I am not good at coding so got eliminated.
