I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at IBM (New York, NY) in Feb 2012
Interview
I applied at the IBM website and the whole process from application to job offer was 5 months. Initially, the recruiter contacted me quickly within 2 weeks. I was asked to fill out a questionnaire related to the job. I didn't hear from them for months thereafter. I applied for a similar position after several months and was contacted by the recruiter. About a month later I phone interviewed with 2 managers. Then I got the offer after a week. It was a lengthy disorganized process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions were mostly behavioral ones like how did you handle this (scenario). If you are experienced these types of questions are easy to answer because you have gone through them in real life. For example, how do you handle a difficult client manager?
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at IBM (Bengaluru) in Jul 2010
Interview
1st round was a written test. 1st test was a general aptitude. the 2nd test was a more sophisticated written test. That would test my skills in Software Testing Concepts.
2nd Round was a telephonic interview with a Technical lead(must be). It was very short. Not more than 30 minutes.
3rd Round was a Manager round. More like into behavioral questions. Pretty easy rounds.
Then after a week I got my offer letter.
