I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Publicis Sapient (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Feb 2020
Interview
The interview process was similar to other good IT MNCs. First, there was an online coding round, then two technical interviews were scheduled. Each video interview was hour-long.
The interviewers were punctual and understanding. I wanted to give an interview at 9 am, as I had some deliverables after that. The interviewer agreed to that also at the last moment.

I applied online. I interviewed at Publicis Sapient (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Sep 2024
Interview
The coordinator asked me to show the entire room on video call before starting the interview which was quite odd. They have interview process of 2 hours which is another odd thing. The company can divide the interviews into two rounds of 1 hour instead of a 2 hour interview. The interviewer asked me open the IDE in my system to write the program.
