Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - I don't know that was my last round cause in accenture first you have to register your profile and resume and they filter and call for a online assement round and after completing the assesment within 5min there is a online technical round and it is optional and after that if you clear the rest you willbe call for online communication test and you cleared that too you will be called for HR round and i was attend tat one and waiting for my result,

My advice to jobseekers , kindly improve ur communication as well as problem solving skill in order to step up in IT field,
First ques in all companies are tell me about yourself so prepare your speech atleast for 2 min , tell them about ur strength and weakness and weakness have to comes under the work ethic category which is "i have a problem of putting too much details in the presentation" .
