I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at CGI (Bengaluru) in Jan 2012
Interview
The HR recruiters that I dealt with were very helpful and professional. The technical skills over the phone interview was shorter than I had anticipated, consisting of one general logic- assessing problem, and a couple of fairly easy programming problems.
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at CGI (Hyderabad)
Interview
Telephonic. Brief and precise. Focused on skills and knowledge. Two stage interview and then the HR negotiation. They were flexible in fixing the time for the interview call. Asked only relevant questions. The interview process too only 2 weeks which was swift, but created pressure to join before the time period discussed

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at CGI (Chennai) in Jul 2015
Interview
I have attended the Interview at Chennai, I was scheduled interview from Bangalore HR Team.
will lot of difficulties i reached chennai and waited for the whole day to go through all the rounds (techical round, MGR Round and HR round). HR team suggested me to reach the office at 9:30 AM, i waited for so long and attended the first round at 4:20 PM, which was really frustrating, after that MGR and HR round got completed and i left the campus at 8:00 PM that too it was Saturday.
and now here comes the funny part in HR round- The HR asked me for the package and negotiated me to some extent which i was like OK. after couple of days i got another call from CGI saying that we could not release the offer letter as we didnot get approval from the Business for the package you are expecting. the difference was like hell. after convincing the HR , i came down some more, now he said i would try but not assure of the package. I said OK. Thats it !!! i didnot get any call from them for one month, after that i called back them and asked for the status ,they simply said that the requirement got freezed and not rolling out any offer letters. I felt like DAMN !!! . I dont understand one thing here, if there is another level of package approval ,why should HR negotiate !!
So people be aware of CGI. and Still i waiting for Offer letter since more than a month.
By the way do you guys know what the package i have expected !! I have 4 + years of experience with current salary as 6 LPA , ECTC - 9 LPA and negotiated to 8LPA and the Business approved for 7LPA. :-( do you think my fate is actually good, Yes of course i dint want to work in this kind of organization. Uffff !!! Great escape .
