WIPRO PAPER ON 29th SEPTEMBER 2007
A mega job fest was organized at RCPIT, Shirpur for recruitment in the Wipro BPO.
The details are as follows ->
Stage 1 Was a basic reading test to verify the clarity and mother-tongue influence on your English. A set of sentences were given which contained rhyming words like “Calibration” and “Celebration” and the like.
Stage 2 Was a Voice Assessment test. We were to read a paragraph. The basic idea was to test 4 major points -> Clarity, Ascent neutrality, fluency and grammar.
Thereafter
we were told to speak on any general topic for 2 min. The topic should not be
technical or computer related. I chose to speak on “The significance of Joint
Family in Indian Society” which was far better than those the others chose (like
some narrated the story of Bollywood movies while few others gave a brief
description of
Stage 3 Was the PI. I was asked were would I like to join Pune or Mumbai and I replied Pune. The summary of the interview is as follows
HR : Good Afternoon.
Me : Good Afternoon Sir.
HR : So u opted for Pune, why Pune and not Mumbai ?
Me : The work culture of Pune is better than that at Mumbai.
HR : Is that so? I do not agree with it, Mumbai’s work culture is much better.
Me : I have been in Pune and Mumbai for some time and I feel Pune is better.

HR : By the way many happy returns of the day.

HR : Its your B’day but still you appeared for this interview ?
Me : Yes sir, B’day comes every year but job opportunities don’t come every year.
HR : No, job opportunities do come every year !
Me : But sir having a job in hand before completing education is much better.
HR : So u r determined to take a package home with u ?
Me : Yes Sir.
(Then he asked some personal information about family background and I replied comfortably)
HR : It

Me : There is no problem with me leaving my home for the job. And as it goes for homesickness I have lived in Mumbai for about 2 months earlier so the question of homesickness doesn’t arise.
HR : Do u hav any problems with night shifts – any medical reasons – high BP , diabetes etc.
Me : No sir.
HR : U have excellent grades in your previous exams , why don’t you try for software companies instead ?
(This was the turning point of the Interview. the candidates who faced interview before me had warned me about it. They were putting a condition before giving the offer. They said that if u accept the letter but do not join u would be blacklisted and would never be able to join any of the Wipro Companies. I being a computer engineer could not afford to leave all future chances for a BPO. So I decided to play foul.)
Me : Definitely sir if I get a better opportunity I would surely grab it.
HR : Do u mean that if u get an offer form some company say Infosys u would not join us.
Me : Yes sir definitely.
HR : In that case why should I select u if u cannot guarantee me job stability ?
Me : Sorry sir I cant promise u any of such things as per your demand.
HR : Well then that’s all from me . Anything u would like to ask?
Me : No Sir.
HR : Thank You . You may leave.
Me : Thank You Sir.
