4 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: It was not so easy not so tough. You require Knowledge of C, JAVA, Basic aptitude for clearing this round. Around 60-65 students took the test. Out of which they selected 31 students for next round.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: These 31 people went through the 1st technical round, was not so tough. You can crack it easily if you are good at what you tell them you know. From this round 12 candidates were selected for next technical round.
2rd technical interview: This was pretty hard. I gave only 60% answers for the question asked. But they seemed satisfied with the answers which I gave. This includes one or 2 Puzzles too.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: All of us then went through the HR round( here just prepare good answers for the standard HR questions ). This was merely a formality. All of us got through it and got placed.
General Tips: 1. Be thorough with the subjects that you have studied in your respective branch and the projects that you did.
2. For this particular company learn 8086 microprocessor & O.S. very well.
3. Be confident with your answers and do not push it if you don't know.
The job profile offered was Associate Engineer. Yeah, at the end they do give you a chance to ask questions about the company. By this they are basically checking that, if you are interested in the company or not. So if you really want to get in, then do ask question to them about what exactly will be your role in the company, but before that fill them in that you are aware of the job profile offered, otherwise they will think you don't know about the job which you want. And ask about the HR's experience in the company, the work environment. Ask a maximum of two questions not more than that, because you don't want to seem like a chatterbox. If you are reading this best of luck, may the odds be with you.
Skill Tips: 1. I referred "Test your C skills" By Yashwant Khanetkar, "Data Structures made easy by Narshimha Karumanchi".
2. For Further Programming I did questions from geeks for geeks.
3. First thing is to clear the aptitude test so start with Arun Sharma or R.S. Agrawal.
I didn't prepared for aptitude very well. So at first I was getting kicked out of the first step itself. So be good at it in the coming summers only. And then prepare your technical part. Change your way of answering according to the company. Its easy to get placed if you work smartly. No need to take tension. Be enthusiastic and dynamic.

4 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: It consisted of 15 question in 25min of the 15 questions 12 were easy and 3 were a little difficult. There was negative marking also. So be careful before you attempt all the questions. This one was an easy round one can easily clear it if he prepares well for aptitude. After that they shortlisted around 175 students among all of them who took the test.
Round: video synthesis
Experience: Next we had a PPT about the company and then we had a Video Synthesis and Coding round. Video Synthesis: most of you might not be knowing what this round is actually about. It’s simple you need you write what you understood rather than what's there in the video. Coding round was also simple. You just need to write the output for the given code. Code is based on for loop. Little preparation is enough to clear this round.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: 1st round:
My first round went on very well. Just keep yourself confident and answer the questions. They ask you to tell about yourself your interests etc. I said I was good at mimicry and he asked me to perform and he was very much impressed with what I did. Later there were a few case study questions. "If you were to conduct a marathon what all things do you take into consideration? “He asked me to tell at least 10 I said around 6.Next he asked me “What all can you do if you have a weather data of previous 4 years?” I told him around 5 to 6 things he was impressed. Always keep a smile on your face. I did very well and I was very confident to get through it.
2nd round of interview:
After my 1st round I was confident that I will make through to the 2nd round. As I expected I was called to the 2nd round. My 2nd round was different when compared to rest of all. They took a one on one interview for everyone but in my case I had a debate with other guy. They took interview for 2 of us together. Asked basic questions like tell me about yourself, where you will find yourself after 5 years and so. I was asked to defend why I will work in mu sigma over any other MNC .I was successful in it and was recruited.
General Tips: Be confident in whatever you say. Always keep a smile on your face at least to cover up your tensions. Never fake because they can easily find out if you do so. Stand on what you say in the interview. Never get disappointed if your pointer is low. Basic aptitude, video synthesis round - just go through it once. Case studies - very important. Have a basic idea of what it is
It was overall a Good experience. In my case I felt it went on very easily.

4 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
General Tips: It was challenging for me to get into this company. I was rejected around 10-11 times before i got placed in this company. So finding out the reason and to overcome it in the next company was the challenging task.
For getting into this company you should have the knowledge of OS, Database,Networks and OOP concepts. "Job profile was software developer.
The questions asked to me were related to OS concepts like deadlocks process and threads n all. From networks they asked me about the wifi drivers installed in your system. They asked about dynamic programming and they gave me one question to solve using dynamic programming. Then they asked me to write two more codes . From database they asked me about the errors which we will get if we do these things in the table. They asked me about the hashmap and how does it work and why it takes constant time in data retrieval. They asked me about the OOPs concepts and the virtual class implementation in detail. In short they asked me questions from every field."
Skill Tips: For the interviews karumanchi is the best book.
Presentation skills matters alot. No matter how much u know, presenating your knowledge in front of the interviewer matters alot. Speaking very fast during an interview may lead you to rejections (personal experience).

4 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: Firstly CGPA cut off was there of 7.00. Then Written Test (Aptitude, Quantitative, Verbal, Reasoning, Technical, 2 Programming questions) by Aspiring Minds. (around 65-75 students).
Written Test was of 126 mins and each section had specific amount of time and some minimum number of questions were compulsory to be attended in each section.
Approximately 1 question had 1 min 15 seconds time. Time limit was there for each section and not for each question. Programming section had 45 mins - 2 questions(not very tough, different questions for all but moderate level only).
General Tips: Be prepared with at least one question to be asked to the interviewer at the end. Highlight networks and if you are interested to work in networks then express that to them.
It was overall a good experience. I was the first to be interviewed and unlike other companies HR and technical interview was held for all the candidates one after the other only and people didn't had to wait whole day for interview to happen. Interview was short i.e around 15-20 mins for each candidate in HR as well as Technical.In HR be prepared for why you want to join ALCATEL? (with a different answer, not a regular one).
Skill Tips: Subject books for Network, OS(Wiley Publication), DBMS etc.
Focus on Networks, OS, C/C++. Try to highlight your projects that you would had done in the field of Networks, Distributed Computing, Hadoop, Big Data. I was asked questions towards networks, about projects, Big Data. Difference between C++ and Java and Python. Which one is better, where, why, etc. Memory Leaks. How we get broadband in our home? I and some of my friends had technical interview and none of us were asked about linked list, tree, queues, Data Structures, but other technical interviewer was asking about them. Must read about the company before attending interview. Must attend PPT to know bout the company.

4 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: I got pre placement offer from the company after doing a 10 week internship there. The placement procedure was the same as that done for internship. There were 4 stages. The first one was the written test followed by a group activity. The shortlisted candidates were divided into groups and had to come up with a solution for a given problem statement. This was a no elimination round
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: All candidates had to go through a technical interview. The type of questions asked depended on one's strengths and the interviewer.
General Tips: Dress appropriately but comfortably and look confident even if you are not. Do not hesitate while answering questions. Even if you are not sure if the answer is entirely correct, attempting is important. Be active in the group activity. Try acting as the team leader. This gets you noticed.
Intuit has given importance to out of the box thinking. Answer questions in your own way as long as you have a good explanation for why you are right. They prefer unexpected answers especially for the HR round.
The overall experience was really good especially because the recruiters were friendly and systematic.

4 Interview Rounds
Interview Preparation Tips
Round: Test
Experience: Oracle conducts an online test in the beginning of the semester. This test consists of general aptitude, verbal ability, C output type questions.
Many divisions of Oracle visit the campus throughout the semester and all of them use these test scores. So, it is advisable not to miss this test.
For Server Tech profile, around 30 were shortlisted for interviews. Most from CS/IT and few from other branches.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Interview Round 1 : Explain projects. Questions were asked based on whatever you say your strong topics are. So, be thoroughly prepared with one of them atleast. Was asked about normalisation in DB, basic linked list questions. A guesstimate type question was also asked. 13 were selected for next round.
Interview Round 2 : Network questions, OSI layers, their functioning. Basic topics. A simple puzzle, involved optimising the solution. DSA question, based on trees
Round: HR Interview
Experience: Telephonic HR round : Standard questions. Nothing to worry about here.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Interview Round 3 : 6 were selected for this round. I was asked 3 questions. One based on OS synchronisation concept, one on DSA, and another on logic gates (I know, its out of the ordinary).
General Tips: To even have a sniff at getting placed, clearing the first round is mandatory. I have seen many deserving people falter in the first round. So, please don't overlook this. Let Us C and Test your C Skills by Yeshwant Kanetkar are the best for this purpose. Many companies lift questions straight off these books.
Do NOT ignore general aptitude. We all think we are good at it, until we realise there are many others who are better. So, practice from aptitude books, online resources.Again, please make good use of your summer. Otherwise, you'll be playing catch up for the first few weeks, like me.
Placements are probably the most challenging experience for most of us in college. If you've got a PPO, nothing like it.
It will be very exhausting. You may feel like giving up. Endless PPTs, interviews etc. But, never lose your determination and you will be rewarded for your hard work.
And the joy after getting placed.
Skill Tips: This is for the software junta. First of all, if you are from CS/IT, there are a plethora of companies coming in the first month itself. So, it is important to be prepared beforehand. Make good use of your summer. I cannot overstate the importance of DSA in placements. Please go through Karumanchi and/or geeksforgeeks. Both of them are equally good. At the same time, brush up the other fundamentals : DB, OS, Networks.

Placements are probably the most challenging experience for most of us in college. If you've got a PPO, nothing like it.

And the joy after getting placed.
Skill Tips: This is for the software junta. First of all, if you are from CS/IT, there are a plethora of companies coming in the first month itself. So, it is important to be prepared beforehand.
