Round: Test
Experience: We were given 3 questions to solve in 30 min duration.Later we were told to walk them through our solution . Two of them were on probability(one random variables and the other on basic probability) and one was on estimating the area of an irregular figure , given some tools.
Tips: Get all the doubts regarding the questions clarified .As you have to explain your solution, it would be helpful if you could pen down all the steps clearly ( as it shows them that your thought process is an organised one). Use pictorial representation if needed. When they propose some other method be open to it and be open to any method they propose and be clear with the method you adopted. Even if you didn't arrive at the final answer, try to communicate your idea on solving the problem( most of the times they will listen to what you say).

Round: Test
Experience: There were totally 8 sections to the test. But they could be broadly put under 4 categories. Firstly all questions were compulsory to attempt and there was no negative marking. Aptitude: Basic quantitative math questions were asked. There was one simple programming question where one could code in C/Java in your local IDE and upload the code file. It was a DO or DIE question, either you get the question and proceed to the next questions of the test or the test gets stopped if the code is not successfully compiled within 5 attempts. This programming question, as was told was an important criteria to filter out candidates for the next round. There was a descriptive question asking about a recent team project done.
