The process took 1 day. I interviewed at IBM (Bengaluru) in Jan 2012
Interview
I got this opportunity to phone interview by submitting my resume through a recruiter contact I got during a conference. I have not heard from them yet.
For the phone interview, I was expecting questions about projects from my resume but the questions were from the courses I took. I think since the person was working on a Data mining/Machine Learning, lot of questions from ML was asked. Much depends on the interviewer but I think it is good to review your more research-based courses if any.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at IBM (Nueva Delhi)
Interview
It was a 1 hours interview process which involved the teams who have shortlisted you via resume, will ask you certain question based on their team's work and fundamentals so cant really tell what can they ask
1st interview - your interests, reason for application, general background stuff
2nd interview - assessment of coding skills, AI concepts, LLMs, etc., using problem scenarios (goal is to understand problem solving skills)
Seems to depend on each team and members on the team
