Round: Test
Experience: After the presentation there was a written test, and we were divided into different batches. The test included Mathematics and reasonable skills. I found it not difficult and finished it on time. There were negative marks, as I remember now. There weren’t many questions; I remember that it was 50 or less. I passed the test and was called to move in to the other classroom where some people were waiting for the other round of interview. By that time the crowd had dwindled, as many couldn’t make it up in the first round. Second round was a written test again and it was completely English and comprehension. I was a bit worried about the comprehension part thought I felt the Grammar part was manageable. I did well in that too and was asked to move to the other classroom for the next round. It was funny to see people running from here and there as their names were called.

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Third round of interview was a technical round and hearing that I was scared. I didn’t have any kind of technical knowledge in Systems. My fellows there told me that technical is going to be something related to hardware and I became hopeless as there was no chance of me passing in it. I did have nothing else to do other than praying. I started calling all the Gods and Jesus and prayed to give me the sense to pass on that test. I got around an hour before the technical round, and I had spent whole that time in praying only. I sit for the technical round. The questions were all simpler as I recall now. There were questions related to “System Restore’, ‘Windows XP’ etc. I knew half the answers for each questions and it was difficult for me. I waited for the results and when it came fortunately my name was there and I thanked God for giving me that opportunity.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: I was called for the next round of interview which was telephonic round. The question was very obvious, “Speak about your favourite topic or any movies that you like”. I chose to speak about some Hindi movie which I saw recently. I was sure of cracking that round as I am confident of my language and communication skills. After that I was asked to move to another room, where some people were waiting. I asked a girl what is going to happen next, she told me that there is another round of telephonic interview. The Wipro HR guy came to me and asked whether I am comfortable to attend the call right now, and I said yes. He handed the cell phone to me and I was happy to hear the sweet female voice on the other end. This round was more interactive when comparing with the other telephonic interview I had ever attended. The interesting question I still remember, is “Sreenath, if God came and asked you to ask three things, what all will be those that you would want?” I made a pause, as this was quite unexpected question, thought and answered “A good family, a good profile well paid job and a good house”. She was impressed as I was! She didn’t hesitate to tell me that, it was the first time she got such an answer other than the usual money, car stuff. She asked me to hand over the phone to the HR guy, and I was asked to wait outside. I waited for almost an hour and then I was called for HR interview. I was so hungry by that time but didn’t prefer to go for lunch as I wanted to just finish the interview. My HR round was nice as he didn’t trouble me much with my previous experience as that was something I was worried about. He as so friendly that he told me that you have got good sores in all the other rounds and we will hope for the best. I was convinced by his words and was more than happy. After 5 minutes, one of the other HR came out and congratulated me for getting selected. I was happy but not excited.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: I had given forms by the HR to fill my personal details and told me that your selection will be confirmed via email. They also told me that they would dispatch my offer letter, if selected to my home address. I left the place evening 5. By that time, my other two friends came out of the hall as they had just finished their technical round. They couldn’t make it through but they were not sad as they had already reserved seats for management course in some colleges, outside Kerala. 
As I told in the beginning, I attended the Wipro for keeping options open. But, there was some confusion from TechM side and I had to undergo three more telephonic rounds and had to extend my vacation to a month from a week. I requested my friend working in TechM to just make a direct enquiry about my employment and he was helpful enough. When he went to the HR to check, coincidentally the HR was working on my file and he informed my friend that I am confirmed with TechM. As he informed this to me, my next confusion was to choose between the companies. Wipro and Tech Mahindra held almost same aspects and brand values. The salary was not that different. There were bond in both the companies but as Wipro had a huge caution amount to deposit before joining, I chose TechM as my future company. Also, it was happy to go back to the place where I was for two years. Later, I got email from Wipro that I am not able to apply to Wipro anymore as I had rejected their offer. That was unfortunate to such a company but I was happy that I am with TechM. 
This was my experience with Wipro Technologies, in which I learnt a lot of things. I experienced the power of praying, strength of being confident and the advantage of good communication skill. It was these three factors that helped me to grab that opportunity.
Any kind of comments are welcome as I would like to know what do you feel after hearing my experince.I wish everyone a great success in interviews and in your career.
Thank you,
Sreenath.
