2. Interview

1. Written test

The pattern for written was same ..3 section
a. Verbal (it was little difficult  ...dont worry cutt off wil be very low ) - 25 quest 20 min
  -- unseen passage (2)
  -- sentence correction(5)
  --correct sentence(5)(was unable to judge which is wrong or right)
  -- jumbled sentence(5)

b. Aptitude
--one cube question like 27 small cube joined 2gther and one row from left is removed and initially painted in green and after removal painted black
so find the no of 0,1,2,3 painted difference b/w black and green etc(not exact )
-- other problems (some irrelevant data will also be given ignore and solve)
 -- binary problem simple one
over all paper was ok.. try few question from verbal and non verbal Rs. aggarwal just to hav a feel nothing more .. chance of same question are  very less

c. Non verbal (most easy and scoring)
few small -2 question like odd one out , next fig, 1 puzzle etc ..very easy (level is low as compared to Rs. aggarwal)

after written we had interview on same day afternoon .. its all depend on ur panel and luck.. 10 panel came to our clg .. each panel consist of 1 member ..
some panel simply ask simple hr question and some causal talk and 2-3 small definition but i got the panel which asked me more hr questions than technical

2. Interview

(Technical+HR)

                the interview process consists of two stages first one is technical .in this they some basic questions from c language, about ur favorite subject, paper presentations and questions like how do u use ur knowledge of ur subjects to our company .u should be thorough in at least one of ur subjects, say confidently whatever it may be, read basics of c language n small programs like palindrome etc thoroughly.

            Regarding HR this is simple but main eliminating process. Read the company profile before going to interview listen ppt properly this is very important most of d questions are frm ppt only proper listening of ppt shows ur interest on company

Be confident ,maintain a little smile on ur face n  if u have positive attitude it is very easy for u.for us tech. n hr by d same person at a time .he is so cool n cooperative .try to listen him properly receive his views in a positive way u vl be succeeded easily
