Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: The test was conducted online. All the questions were of medium standard and easy to crack if we have patience for thinking.
English comprehension level is slightly below the standard of CAT. Those who have the habit of reading English news paper can easily crack the test.
Data analysis questions were also of medium standard. Those who have knowledge about graphs, bar & pie charts can easily crack the exam.
Tips: Practice Aptitude questions from R S Agarwaal book and CAT material.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: Over all interview experience is cool. Interviewers never grilled on anything. In many cases they have helped me to arrive at answers.
Tips: Read C++ and Oops concepts from E Balaguruswamy text book.
For Data structures and algorithms read 'Data structures' by Yeshwant kanethkar.
Minimum knowledge about all the courses of your department will be an added advantage. This will help you to depict you are sincere in your studies and don't have any personal constraints in learning a new thing.
General Tips: Just be confident and believe in yourself. You will get through.
Skills: Programming skill in C++

I appeared for an interview in Aug 2016.
Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: The questions were tricky. We were given a paragraph and after reading it, a statement was given to us and we were asked to say if it is true, false or cannot say. The structure of the statement put us into a a tough place. So practice of such kind of questions is necessary.
For data interpretation questions a good hand on basic statistical mathematics is needed. One has to be quick because of the time crunch. The questions were approachable
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: In this round my resume was scanned and I was required to speak about myself, my projects and explain certain areas of my resume. The interviewer picked up one of my basic project, surprisingly, and asked me to elaborate on it. He asked me how I can improve the project. And I had to write a code to make that change. Basically, one should have a good idea about the projects they've done/ mentioned in their resume. And know it in detail.
Few questions on data structures. Prepare well for coding type questions and data structures.
Round: Puzzle Interview
Experience: The interviewer asked me two puzzles. They were moderate level. And also luckily he was helpful whenever I got stuck.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: HR round was good. Basic questions like " tell me more about yourself", brief information about my past history, college life, extra curricular activities. In the end she asked me, "should we hire you?" And I lightly answered " why not!" So it was a good interview overall.
Skills: Coding Skills, Team Working Ability, Project management
College Name: Visvesvaraya National Institute Of Technology
Interview Questionnaire
2 Questions
- Q1. Algorithm and Trick questions on Java
- Q2. Your future interest, interaction capabilities
Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: Mention only those projects/works which you feel fully confident on, let any question be thrown your way.
Believe me, a simple project explained in a good way is better than a complex project that scares you going into the details.
Tips: A little bit of extra activities (sports/music) helps them picture you as not a total nerd, which might help in front of some interviewers.
Round: Interview
Experience: They will mostly try to trick you here, even if you are right, they will make you doubt yourself. It's just about believing oneself and answering in one go.
Tips: Stick to your answers if you feel it's right, changing it again and again won't do you much good.
Round: Interview
Experience: This is where you have to be most careful, what they seek is just your interest in the company or infact passion for their work and not leaving them mid-way for higher studies or startup plans.
Tips: Diverting talks to some extra-currics might help a lot here specially if they have interest in that too, like the one, I was giving interview to, was wearing a Barcelona cap and I had mentioned that I played football at Inter-Hostel level. So we talked about the recent Premier league for like 10 minutes and the mood was really lightened, thanks to that.
General Tips: It is never too late to be what you might have been.
Skills: Algorithms, Java, Interaction Skills, coding, C, C++
College Name: IIT DELHI
Motivation: The technology (Social-Media Management) they are working on is really interesting to know more about and can be a future pioneer in the coming days.
Funny Moments: One of the interviewer I became so friendly with, mid-way through the interview that we added each other right there on facebook.
