The HR may even ask some questions to check ur confidence.. but be confident in wateva ur answerin... Then she gave us a topic on GD.. Our topic was Globalization... Some advice wud lik to giv is.. neva b in a hurry to speak.. as if it is da only time u'll b allowed to speak.. dnt try to cut others statements n make ur point.. try comin to a conclusion n neva keep quiet in a GD.. speak somethng... As soon as i came out of the HR interview they intimated me dat i was selected and had to go for technical round. The technical round wudn't say is tough... but yes great way for dat guy to shake ur confidence.. he'll try his best but u hav to b at ur best...

No. of sections = 2 No. of questions in 1st section = 25 No. of questions in 2nd section = 15 Mark distribution = 1 mark each. (No negative marking) Aptitude Paper Section 1: Logical reasoning Aptitude Paper Section 2: English Technical Interview: Since I did a mini-project, I was asked to explain it! I took much time for that and explained it from the beginning, with its advantages and limitations. Then I was asked questions from C. Since I was a beginner in C, I could not answer much, but somehow managed with all I knew! Then, as I am from ECE department, questions from microprocessor was asked! The questions included 8086 microprocessor architecture, register structures, addressing modes, instruction set and so on. I answered all those questions but had some difficulties with the instructon set as he asked me to tell all the instructions I knew. Then, he gave me a paper and asked me to draw certain gate diagrams and also to write down the truth-table for those gates! These are the questions I remember. It all depends on how cool you are during the interviews! The more you get hot, greater are the chances for appearing blank before the personnels! So be cool and try to answer all the questions. Human Resource Interview: I had the HR round before the technical round. This was quite interesting.... The interviewer was a Lady. She asked me to introduce myself. I told her my academic history. But as she emphasised on my personal life, I started with my hobbies. I said I love singing and playing guitar. Immediately she interrupted and asked me to sing a song for her. I was totally taken by surprise and had no other option but to sing! Then she went through my resume and asked me to explain what I learnt from the Industrial visits I had gone. I explained all that I knew. The interview went on interesting with many such questions. But these are some noteworthy ones! After the interviews were over, we were told that the results will be sent to the respective Placement Deans of each colleges. So we left very soon enjoying the rain that blessed that night!

Get latest Fresher / Experienced Engineering Jobs at www.123eng.com Get Collection of Placement Papers of Various Companies at www.123eng.com The Verbal section had 15 questions and cut-off 8 . But I strongly believe that the cut-off marks were varied a little up & down.. though not by a big margin. The logical sections include symbols, coding, blood relations, series and 2 DI questions. The verbal section consisted of correction of sentences, substitution of correct words, and passages. Rating of the exam will be characteristic frm person 2 person.. so I wouldn't comment on that. Results were announced, a brief inroduction abt the company was given. The next round was a Technical cum HR round conducted in 2 stages. First I was called for the HR round. It was a lady.

The selected people were given a “Bio-Data” form to fill, it includes your name, %, institution, university, name and work of brothers and sisters, ur addr, phone no, ur training and project and finally ur s/w skills.
