  • Q1. What do you use the separate lines in standard output in c++?
  • Ans. 

    Separate lines in standard output in C++ are used to display different pieces of information on separate lines for better readability.

    • Separate lines are used to display different outputs or messages in a clear and organized manner.

    • They are commonly used with the 'endl' or ' ' characters to move to the next line.

  • Q2. How do double linked list work? What is the difference between linked list and double linked list?
  • Ans. 

    A double linked list is a data structure where each node contains a reference to the previous and next node.

    • In a linked list, each node contains a reference to the next node only, while in a double linked list, each node contains references to both the previous and next nodes.

College Name: IIT Kanpur

I was interviewed before Jun 2016.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Resume Shortlist
Experience: McKinsey looks for a spike in your resume, people who have commendable achievements is their field of choice, academics, extra curriculars or sports. So be sure to make your resume accordingly. McKinsey adds a lot of weight-age to formal awards, scholarships, achievements (like inter-IIT) etc. But if you don?t have them (like me) you just have to make extra effort to show that you have equivalent achievements.

Round: Technical + HR Interview
Experience: First I was asked about myself and mostly my connection to dance and the dance club. (Some interviewers do this to make you comfortable at the same time analyzing your personality). In the first interview I was given an estimation case about the dish TV industry. Here the interviewer was mostly interested in my approach to solving the problem and if applicable my numerical skills. The second interview was a pure business case about the printing business. Here my creativity and business sense (read common sense as applicable to a business situation) was put to test.
Tips: Take on every interview as if that job doesn?t mean anything to you.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Interview
Experience: Quizzed on opinions of the Construction Industry.

General Tips: 1. Be prepared on the courses and project works that you mention in your resume2. Read newspapers, blogs about the construction industry and keep yourself updated

College Name: VIT Chennai

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Deloitte selection procedure involves a written test which is
same as CAT format (certainly not that tough). Though I had not joined any test series to prepare for it, but I must strongly recommend that you should actually join a test series (provided by Career Launcher or
TIME). This test series will actually help you to synchronize your mind to the format and moreover it would help to refresh the question solving skills which you used to exercise while preparing for JEE.

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: general topic is given (mostly it is as to how you would go for implementing a new type of technology in a company, and hence you all have to decide the stepwise procedure for the implementation), then whole of the group is called in presentation room where each one is told personally to speak about the same topic as that of GD. This constitutes
second round. Finally, if you clear it, you get to face the interviews.
Tips: From now onwards, start reading newspaper daily. Just give at least one hour reading the editorials from newspaper and make it your habit. Not only for GD's, but for life in general, its very important that you should have a certain view about things happening around you and in the world and newspapers are the best thing which help you form your views and also know about the expert opinions on day to day topics. So, make sure that you read newspaper daily.

Round: Other Interview
Experience: For interview, main thing is that you should be well conversed about everything you have mentioned on your resume. So, before you go for any interview, just make sure that you can speak about for 5 minutes on
every single thing in resume. Deloitte is a company which is open for all the btech students and hence its mainly looking for the students who have a right attitude and are good at their interests.
Tips: have a perfect set of communication skills. I had not done
any special type of preparations for the interview or group discussions but all these skills actually developed during these years. I would advise that in order to gain more confidence at speaking, you should start taking challenges from now on and should actively participate in any sort of debates and GD.

Tips: Speaking skills are required. Put forward sensible points. Leadership quality will help. Drive the group to discuss your point.
Duration: 10 minutes

Round: HR Interview
Tips: The spirit with which you deal the interview matters most. If it is a stress interview, try to be as cool as possible.

General Tips: I started towards the ending of October. It would definitely help if I had started earlier. If you are aiming for deloitte you don't have start anytime earlier than october. As many don't aim for deloitte please don't start late and repent later. There will be plenty of time during the semester to prepare for whatever profile and job you are aiming for.





2nd & 3rd years

If you are aiming for core companies get a very good project, you can pitch about. The project has to be purely linked to the dept concept. For example, in civil engineering I did a project on fusing BIM and Gaming. Although it seems cool, it doesn't help at all as far as core interview is concerned



In general if a person is aiming at a finance or a banking company at least one internship in the respective field SHOULD be done to bring weight to your resume.
Skill Tips: Any courses relating to infrastructure (IPM – offered by Ashwin Mahalingam ofCivil Dept will help).

Any BTP relating to infrastructure – like socio-economic evaluation of a project,that they liked in the resume, or performance in previous rounds etc.)taking BIM to govt, policy considerations etc would be job-fetchers.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The Test was an adaptive one, which means that the level of difficulty of the next question depends on the answer to the previous one. The test was very easy though, attempt all the questions and I think that should be enough to get you through.

Round: Group Discussion
Experience: The GD was a case study, we were divided into group of 8-9 and were given a case to discuss.5 mins to understand the case + 15 to discuss it amongst the group + 5 mins to present it.We all were being watched closely and they were jotting down every point made. So make relevant and good points (less is fine but good points)Speak clearly so that every other person should be able to hear what you are trying to sayThey might even ask you to add more to the discussion in the end, that doesn't necessarily mean that you are lagging behind in the scores.

Skill Tips: Know basics of languages (C/C++/C#/JAVA….) really well. Know yourprojects thoroughly (almost everyone was asked on projects). Have an idea aboutcyber security (Firewalls, Viruses….), Networking (basically CCN). Also do DataStructures properly (every company asks it anyways)
