Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: For TCS we had aptitude test of 30 questions and we got 1 hr to complete it. As we engineers are good at preparing at the last moment, I did the same thing. I googled TCS aptitude sample paper and tried to study there paper, like what types of questions you get, which topic has the highest weightage etc. Studying this all papers I made a list of topics I need to cover.
Then I started practicing. when my test started I was confident about the 21 questions I answered out of 30. As there was negative marking so I didn't attempt the test. Most of the questions are answered were from the topic I covered earlier.
Tips: 1) Don't do donkey work, be SMART. Before attacking on apptitude books and start solving questions, do a bit of homework; shortlist the topics and then practice.
2) Connect to different college students where the company has already visited and try to get some information from them.
3) If there is negative marking, Attempt the questions only if you are 100% confident.
4) Keep calm during the test.
Duration: 00 minute
Total Questions: 1

Round: HR Interview
Experience: There were three inerviewers in the panel. Like all other candidates I have memorised the introduction.
One of the interviewer asked me introduce myself in a different way as she was boared of listening the same introduction again and again.
So I started with the meaning of my name and then started basic information like that where do I start, schooling, hobbies, family etc.
Tips: Be prepared for the suitation. Go through different interviews on youtube.
Be calm and smile while talking.
Dont get panic, Introduction matters but if that doesn't go well don't worry you still have chances.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: They asked me to explain the final year project. I explained them drawing a daigram. If you think you are not able to convince them then use a metaphor. Give them examples of the real world scenario.
Tips: 1) Before going for interview keep that in mind that interviewer is not stupid and you can't fool him. If you are trying to fool him then he will know and it might not be good for you.
2) If you don't know about anything they asked, don't keep beating around the bush, be honest and tell them you don't know. That shows your one quality that you are honest.
3) Keep an eye contact with everyone in panel, try to get them in a conversation.
