5 Interview Rounds

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: It was basic aptitude test with two parts
part i) General test: 40 questions, 20 minutes
part ii) Technical test: 30 questions, 20 minutes
both of the test were easy.
Tips: practice for time and work, time speed and distance, some what geometry and mensuration, and mainly search for 3dplm and geometric previous year questions
Duration: 40 minutes

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: It was interview of 32 candidates --> 2 day process
My interview took around 60-70 minutes. Initially I was little nervous, so interviewer told me to be relax and calm (this process is ice breaking process so that candidate can give answers in his normal way). then he started with introduce yourself, for all interviews this is the first question.
my introduction was not completed as my actual interview began with my achievements. First question was about codevita what is codevita, what types of problem were asked and all that (Codevita is competition organised by TCS every year and it was mentioned in my resume), so after listening to problem statement he changed the problem in his way and asked me to make a program. he asked me one question on java but I am unable to recall it right now. Next was puzzle -> Given 9 identical coins what number of minimum comparisons between them will be required to determine one of the heavier coin.
I solved this puzzle and i think i was the first one to answer it correctly, so interviewer played the next move.. and that was to make a program for this where input was no. of coins and output is no. of comparisons required. (this was the important question of my interview due to which i got selected).
he asked about my family, my future plan specially post graduation (he tried to asked me 2-3 times about my post graduation plans)
Tips: Be confident,
always be ready for data structure, C, puzzles.

Round: Group Activity
Experience: this was unique round took around 2hr.
it was group discussion on puzzle and one program between all candidates and HR also.
Puzzle: there are 25 horses and you have to find top 3, but problem is track has a size of 5 horses so what is minimum no. of races requiered to find top 3.
Program: Date validation (this took around 1 and half hour)
overall motto behind this round was checking candidate's thinking capability, and how he behaves in a group.
Tips: Be confident and share your thoughts, as i think every company basically focuses on how good your thought process is.

Skills: Data Structure, logical reasoning, programming
College Name: Government College Of Engineering, Aurangabad
Funny Moments: in my second round, for program of date validation
every one was talking about creating a program, but i am bit lazy, so i gave my answer that create a reference of Date class and insert the details using that reference if error occured then that date is not valid

on this HR replied me "anyways you are selected "

and after the end of session everyone came to me to shake hand but i was thinking that was joke and i did not shook hand with anyone.

4 Interview Rounds

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The techinical aptitude test was above average level and had conceptual problem . Some good questions were there from C,C++.
persistent basically concentrates on every subject and now a days also concentrate more on software engineering.
C.C++,OS,DBMS,Computer Architecture,Networking and some microprocessor part was covered in those 60 quesn of technical.
Then 20 min for programming .Immediately after that 10 min for essay writing.
Tips: Most of the times we are prepared for interview but not for technica aptitude .
The test requires sound basic knowledge of each field ,do prepare software engg questions well .At least 45+ correct questions would give chance of next round if code done is correct .
The code is evaluated only if you qualify in tech apti.
File handling program may be tough and tricky one,rest all are easy.
Duration: 90 minutes
Total Questions: 60

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: tech 1 :
my project was in AI so related questions first ,he wanted a basic intro of all.
after seeing resume and mentioning of hackerrank and seeing all achievements started of the
Interviwer : So you are hacker ?
S : No not at all hacker i practise prog on hackerank.
I : so what are types of hackers
S : Black hat,white hat.
I : so can they be potential terrorsit
S :yes at times with wrong intention they are potential terrorist
asked me to explain eg and did it ,satisfied .
I : so introduce yourself
I : so tell me fuzzy logic
told him
I : tell me algorithms you know some brief intro
S : told him about A* algo,fleming bird algo,salesperson problem .(took lot of time)
I : explain me this project
S : told him some of conditions as all were not possible ,some talk on optimization of length of code etc.
I : So tell me about programming sites
S : told them all about codechef,hackerrank,spoj.
I : Now say i have char ch='n' my name starts with n say how will it get stored
I : so what all microprocessor has
I : how many type of interrupts , and in detail eg (I wasnt sure ,gave eg but told that i was not sure)
I : implement circular link list
I : insert element in circular link list.
I : constant variables,volatile variables.
I : What are stack and queue and thier application.
I : where are variables stored (dyanmic allocation and static with the global and static varoable he wanted)
I : now here comes puzzle from nowhere : 3 cans each full with capacity 3,5,7 liter make it 5,5,5
(I thought there might be some way and kept talking every moment ,is there large supply of water ,can we spill it all he denied)
so i couldnt do it then he asked whether i need another vessel and asked how much quantity ,i told 5.
he said consider it ,did it in seconds and so he again said that was way easy now do original problem .
I tried a lot he kept talking on mobile for 5 min (worst part).
I : so he asked me again some question on queue ,its implementation
I : then went to OS ,priority queue scheduling basic idea and code.
So i am finished with you .said thank you sir .

Tips: Yes everyone is tense for firts round ,but the interviewer are very friendly ,almost all of them .
They ask technical questions and check if you can go out of box in tech as well as thinking aspect.
Continous interaction with interviewer is must .

Round: Technical Interview

I : so shivshankar introduce yourself.
I : What are all these sites and ranks ,explained him in detail .

I : reverse a link list i did interative and was expecting him to say for recurrsive ,again did it .
I : gave a array problem easy one
I : another probelm where he incremented array name ,so it was lvalue error (he gave no expression).
I : gave structure question .
I : asked for another resume and threw a paper with apti quesn on it ,did that just a hour before only .
I : asked about higher studies and why mathematics specialization only?
I : asked virtual function description and abstract class too .
I : graph implementation , dijkastras algo basic explanation ,if code is known then code too.
I : asked family background


Tips: This will be purely on data strcutures and algorithm if area of intrest is DS and algo ,if not it will be a mix of algo plus any other your favourite subject .
Many may get This round directly ,so if you perform in this round you go directly to HR.
so you face only one interview then 2.

Hr2 : what all was in your project of i2i .
HR2 : queue application asked again .

HR2 : Why not further education
HR2 : family background .

They co operate a lot and expect truth only and some info must be known about company.
