Interview
They had a paper-pen aptitude test. After that there were 2 rounds of interviews. The interview was mainly in testing your problem solving abilities and attitude. One panel asked small puzzles which you can find easily on the internet. I think i got selected because i was very enthusiastic during the interview (unlike other job interviews i attended where i was very passive).
