The interview had a total of 5 rounds. Your performance in the previous round determines your movement to the next round. Round 1: Fill out a form providing required information about the role applied for. Write an essay of at least 250 words on a given topic. Round 2: An online test based on the role applied for. The test requires finding authors, writing emails and appropriate replies. It also requires reviewing the Book or Course Outline suggested by the authors and making suggestions to improve the outline if need be. It's a fictional test to test your abilities. The task is real and you get access to internet to do the research. Round 3: An introduction round with HR. Round 4: A comprehensive interview with your possible reporting manager. This is a panel interview. I was interviewed by a Publisher and a Senior Acquisition Editor. Round 5: An interview with the General Manager.

The interview process was smooth and interactive. Had a chance to meet my manager and the team as well. People don't scrutinize you but have a friendly discussion and give you a clear understanding of the role.
