I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capgemini (Bengaluru) in Sep 2016
Interview
they said it is scheduled interview but more than 100 people where there. For filtering they have conducted an online exam if you are not clearing the online also they will ask you take up Technical discussion.
They will give only preference to less notice period people.If you clear the technical rounds and if you don't have less notice then they will not prefer you.
I went at 10 but I had a technical discussion by 4 PM after a long wait. I have cleared the technical round but the HR didn't take because I have 1 and half month notice period.
They will ask basic questions which you have mentioned in the resume.

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Capgemini in Sep 2016
Interview
First round was an online test consisting of four sections; logical reasoning, English, company values, programming basics! 150 students gave the test. 32 went to the interview round! There was 1 technical interview and 1 HR round which was more of a stress interview! GK questions were asked in the HR round as well!
The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Capgemini (Jalandhar, Punjab)
Interview
A third party conducted test which consisted of 4 sections-
1. General Aptitude
2. English
3. Situation responsibilities
4. Basic coding
Problem arose when many students met the eligibility criteria But they did not recieved any email. And there were students who recieved email personally, But their name was not on list.
4-5 students whose name was not mentioned on list But recieved email personally, cleared the test But they were categorized in waiting list.
Interviews were conducted after few days.
CapeGemini's HR must be most confused person in this world. First he wanted to conduct interview of these students. Next day he change his stance.
A technical glitch and process and you are out.
