CTS PAPER ON 20th JUNE
6 - 7 colleges(don't
remember) participated in this campus interview. CTS has a unique practice of
calling the first few toppers for direct interview. However, since many colleges
participated, CTS announced that 6 toppers from each dept. in SathyaBhama and 2
toppers from each dept. in Jeppiar and Panimalar Colleges can appear for direct
interview. Anyway, I was not eligible for direct interview.

only half)
speciality about my hometown(told)

(gave a paper)draw the OSI layers(wrote the 7 layers)
what's the difference between hub and switch?(after thinking a while, I told 'I
don't know')
asked about my project and paper presentations. (told 'I haven't done any' he
was disappointed and asked why. I didn't answer. he told, ' you must go beyond
your academics')
Do you watch movies?(told 'No')
Why?(told 'not interested')
You live in a remote place and cts being in the city(Navallur), how will you
come?
---- in bus
but that will take long - nearly 3 hrs.
-----that's not a problem, sir
the next 3 questions were on my travel
itself
I clearly told him, ' I have no problem with bus travel. In fact I like journey
especially in bus'
why did you choose this college?
----top in the ranklist & well known for discipline
how can you use your ece in cts?
-----first 2 years, i would work as a trainee and then shift to the track of
telecommunication(one of the verticals in cts is telecommunication- I answered
like this because I thought I should be specific in my future career)
what if you're not given this track by the company?
--------but sir, in the preplacement talk, it was assured that the track that we
wish will be provided
ok, but still if you're not given?
----(as he insisted i told) i can take any other track as i can cope up with any
subject.
do you have any questions?
-----yes sir, what is that you like and you don't like the most in your
trainees?
I don't like static mind--for eg; in
your case you told you would go to telecommunication. you should not restrict
yourself to that. as opportunities from various directions, try to grab it.
----nodded my head with a smile(i later thought I will be rejected by this
answer )
I like fresh mind--people asking
questions. I am also a trainer. I need to teach my trainees right from switching
on a computer. but after 2 years they sit along with me to do project. and
that's really a great honour to me.
-------thank you sir
thank you
some were asked only about the family
background and some were asked only technical questions from each subject of
the six semesters including environmental science, ethics, control
systems,......no use of mentioning areas of interest. try to brush up all the
basic concepts.
i got selected. if God wants you to
keep you in cts to glorify Him, you'll be placed even if you don't answer well.
otherwise you'll be placed somewhere else where you can shine (more) well for
Him! so don't worry at all ! keep trying! only failure to try is failure and
failing itself is not a failure!
All The Best!!!!!!
