I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Amadeus (Bengaluru) in Aug 2013
Interview
Test
The process started with an online test. The test had two sections, verbal and numerical. Verbal questions were based on a few passages. A passage is shown on screen, and we are required to interpret the passage and answer the following questions. The questions should be answered with True, False or Can’t say, and the answer has to be made solely based upon the pasage provided. Although it appears simple, its quite tricky as you need to be careful about not making extra assumptions, and STRICTLY go by the passage.
Numerical Section gives you a table and you are required to answer questions based on data from the table. This section involves a lot of number crunching, and its MANDATORY that you take a calculator with you. Be careful about the time, as the numbers you are dealing with would be so high that even typing the same into the calculator may take a lot of time.
