I received a call from the recruiter from Sapient. I had a detailed conversation with the gentlemen. He explained what the company was about and its overall culture there. I was then brought in for a three plus hour long interview. The first part was personality exam. It was pretty standard (tell me about yourself, etc.) face-to-face initial interview. The second part was to solve a business problem that comprised of five questions. The third was to present your solutions to the team lead. Overall, I think the experience was good. I just wished I had a bit more time to think about the business problems. It composed of data-model, writing psuedo-code, planning out the project, and also test cases. To be honest, I initially thought I did very well. I was able to solve the problems and presented them accordingly to the team lead. The questions made you think at a very high level. Their feedback was that I lacked enough technical experience, which totally threw me off-guard. I just wished they would of asked more technical questions, show I can show them my experiences. I was disappointed about that.

There were two rounds of interview. First was the telephonic interview for the technical knowledge at their office location. The second was the HR round (again a telephonic one) where you will be but into some scenarios to justify and how to react for that situation; also some general HR questions were asked.
