Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The test had two sections, i.e, aptitude and coding(two questions). Around 10 and 20 students were selected after this round for pune and chennai branch respectively.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: I was from electrical background so I had more questions about electrical, projects, puzzles..etc, They didn't ask more questions on coding though it was for job profile.They just expect you to know what you have learnt well.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: I had a tough time in the HR round as I was not able to completely convince them about the reason why I want to join for an IT profile when I have no projects related to it to prove my interest.There were general questions like why citicorp, strengths/weakness, resume based question..etc.

General Tips: I was recruited for the IT Analyst profile.It is not compulsory to ask questions during interviews but if you have some real doubts you should ask. It is good to ask some question atleast because it shows that you are interested in the company.
Skill Tips: Don't panic, you needn't know everything. Just be sure and confident about what you speak. No special preparation required. But just know what you have done in three years atleast fairly well as not knowing electrical after studying it for three long years would give a wrong impression about your ability to learn and grasp things.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: AMCAT TEST
Experience: The selection procedure included an aptitude test managed by Amcat. It included Quant , Verbal, C Aptitude and 2 Coding questions. The level of the questions were easy but the time was limited as in one question per minute time was allotted and the cut-offs were close to 80% in the aptitude sections. Since it was open for all branches 270 people appeared ad 70 were shortlisted.
Tips: For aptitude round Indiabix.com and sample Amcat questions are more than enough.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: They asked me basics of arrays and linked lists which included efficient swapping, searching, deletion, etc and a few puzzles.
Tips: For C Aptitude , basics of DS is sufficient. Also people from non-CS and non-IT branches, do ask your CS and IT friends to tell you some common Data Structures interview questions.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: After this I had a Technical cum HR round where they asked me about my internship, projects, good things about place of internship, about going for further studies and history questions (I had told them I am interested in History so they asked me about the beginning of World War 2 , so its important to choose your hobbies wisely.
Finally one last HR round was conducted where they asked about my family and my 10th, 12th and college Maths subject marks.

General Tips: Be thorough with your CV. Be honest during the interview especially if you do not know a certain topic. Like I said that being from EEE we do not have Data Structures and OS as part of our curriculum so I know only the basics and that's why he tested me on the same. Also when a puzzle is asked, keep asking relevant questions about the puzzle because most companies see your approach rather than the final solution.
Most of the questions were very basic and they focused more on my internship project so it was a good experience. Also I was the first one to finish all the rounds so it wasn't very exhausting either. Although some had to wait the whole day to get to the first round of interview.
Skill Tips: Like I said, be thorough with the basics of Data Structures especially if you do not have a nice internship to show on your CV and try to score high on your Aptitude test. Also brush up everything you have written on your CV and go through common puzzles asked during interviews.

Round 1 - Technical 

(2 Questions)

  • Q2. Did any internship

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Initial shortlisting
Experience: Only students from the CS and IT branches at NITK were permitted to enroll for the process. A minimum CGPA requirement was set after which 80 of us were eligible to write the aptitude test.

Round: Test
Experience: Written aptitude test: Consisted of 4 multiple choice papers - Logical reasoning, quant, English and basic programming for which we were given 20 minutes each. Felt that the questions were simple and pretty straightforward. The results were announced in the afternoon and 20 of us had cleared the test.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Technical Interview: I was asked moderate questions on algorithms, database systems and the projects I had done in college. The interviews went on till around 6 pm after which 11 of us progressed to the final round.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: HR interview: This was an interview that I really enjoyed. The HR manager began with the clichéd questions and then went on to ask some very interesting ones for about half an hour.

General Tips: "If you're keen on knowing what it was like to intern at J.P. Morgan, you could visit this link on my personal blog and read the article I had written about my internship.
Do not use the internship only as an opportunity to get employed. Assess what the firm has to offer you and whether a full-time job there would help you in the long-term scheme of things.
In any case, I do believe that an internship at J.P. Morgan would be a great way for you to get an insight into the corporate world, especially if you're keen on working in the technology sector in the financial services industry."
