Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - Super Confused, Super Slow, Super irregular, Super Selfish, Super irritating, super stingy (in terms of salary) interview procedure.

It all started 3 months back with a consultancy call to forward to 'Principal Engineer' position for their Airlines business. I said yes as this was the right role which matches my skill set and past experience.

This Super Confused, Super Slow, Super irregular, Super Selfish, Super irritating, super stingy (in terms of salary) interview procedure started 3 months ago with first round from HR. Took 7 days to call tell me i am suitable and matching for the position and to fix next technical rounds. Called for face to face to their office in Prestige Tech Park.

Reached promptly half-an-hour before the scheduled time as i respected this company. 2 rounds happened on the same day. Second round was with Junior Manager who got just promoted into that role as he was for long time with Amadeus. One hour, he was extremely satisfied with my technical capabilities. Suggested me to the third round - with Senior Manager. She was from Data background earlier and apart from data related technologies she does not know any other. She just knows what tools are need for her job and doe snot understand a bigger picture of any technicalities - as like in a pure people manager. One more hour and I was sent back on that day.

LONG GAP OF 2 weeks!!! Call from HR. Informed me happily that I Cleared 2nd and 3rd rounds. Was invited for 4th and 5th rounds again after 1 week to their office.

Reached promptly half-an-hour before the scheduled time as i respected this company. 4th round was the business head of Airline, 45 mins. Cleared and was sent to 5th round with a Senior Architect. Went for 1.5 hours. This also included some stress test questions continuously negating whatever clear answers I gave him. How is Amadeus bearing such Architects!?!?!?

LONG GAP OF 5 weeks!!! Call from HR. Informed me happily that I Cleared 4th and 5th rounds. Now she says, they want to consider me one level below the applied position. I agreed for that too!?!?!? Why do you want to do such for good candidates this way?

Later after a Gap of 1 week, she calls and invites me for final HR round. I felt good. Before HR round there is a fitment assessment test which is like forcing you that you are a negative thinking person. Somehow cleared it and attended HR round.

Again, Reached promptly half-an-hour before the scheduled time as i respected this company. HR round was so long that I never attended any MNCs HR round for so long. It went on for 1 hour 15 mins!!! Expected Salary was discussed thoroughly on either ends.

Again long gap of 1 week, and informs me HR round is cleared. Asks me to send last 3 payslips and last offer. I sent them immediately without any delay.


AGAIN LONG GAP OF 2 WEEKS. Now, HR says, Airline business is not doing well, and their Hospitality business wants to interview me 2 more rounds! After 1 week, she arranges 7th round with Director of Hospitality unit - whose background core is Mining from Dhanbad school of mines!?!?!? - and he is trying to judge a Masters in Computers on high tech data structures! WAIT, WHAT!?!?!?! You can understand their standards with this. Somehow, he could poorly manage it for 1 hour and I am sure i performed pretty good. I could see that in his replies.

Later after a Gap of 1 week, and today she calls me and informs me that I have gaps in education!!!What, what? Were you blind when you first scanned my resume before giving a 1st round of HR screening call???

If you clearly can't afford a techie from product companies, just keep quiet. Don't waste 3 months of anybody's precious time giving false hopes to the candidates. Even after reading similar feed backs on Amadeus, i made a big mistake of attending their rounds whenever they called me promptly.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS Super Confused, Super Slow, Super irregular, Super Selfish, Super irritating, super stingy (in terms of salary) COMPANY.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: I had a standard resume for this company as per the norms of our institute’s placement cell. For Oracle I laid emphasis on my programming skills and projects related to it.

Round: Test
Experience: The first round was the written test that comprised of 5 sections – vocabulary, aptitude, pattern matching, logical reasoning and programming. The questions in the programming section were asked from data structures and C++. The questions in the programming section were mainly from trees (from data structures). Around 400 students appeared for their written test out of which around 100 were shortlisted.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: The next round was the interview round. They gave me some puzzles to solve and a program to write. One of the puzzles that I remember was that if I were to be given an egg then how would I determine its durability, i.e. how would I determine that from which floor do I need to throw the egg from so that the egg does not break if thrown from any floor below it.
For the coding question I was given a mathematical formula and I was asked to devise a code such that the program uses the formula and gives the output.
Tips: Prepare for Data Structures as well as the commonly asked puzzles for Oracle.

College Name: IIT ROORKEE
Motivation: Oracle is a reputed company in the space of software and ITeS. It had come to our campus with five profiles. The best means to know about all of them is to attend the pre-placement talk of the company.

I applied via Referral

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: I appeared for Amdocs through Campus Recruitment Process. Section 1,2,3 was not tough, if you have practiced RD Sharma then don't worry about these sections as it was the easiest part of the written test. After that there were two coding questions in which you can choose any language(C/C++/Java) to write your code. The code were easy, I mean it wasn't like Codechef problems. If you have ever made the programming assignments by yourself then you would definitely be able to crack this section. Even if you didn't make it then you can practice coding questions like finding H.C.F, L.C.M, Removing redundant number from array, finding whether the string is palindrome or not, finding whether the number is Armstrong number or not,etc,. Now comes the technical section that was little bit tough for those who haven't studied about UNIX ever. It was consisting of C, DBMS and Unix. C questions can easily be attempt by completing "Test your C Skills by Yashwant Kanedtkar", In DBMS most of the questions were query based, some PL/SQL questions were also there, in Unix most of the questions were from VI editor commands and some linux commands like sed, uniq, fdisk and very few questions were from shell scripting like, what will be the output of echo*. Overall the test was easy, since it is easy for everyone so you need to do lots of practice because out of more than 200 students only 39 cleared the written test in our campus.
