Round: Test
Experience: Quant was most important for the tests, fast mathematics, then technical questions. Technical questions

generally asked by the company. The tests were mostly MCQ. Some tests were there which had subjective question papers. Those subjective type tests lasted 3 hours. They would write a program to do *task* type questions. The programming

language to write the code in, was our choice. The language options were C, C++, Python, Java. Python was rarely asked

Round: Group Discussion
Tips: The skills they wanted to test was to see how well they were able to express their ideas, but without outwardly disrupting others while talking.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: The HR usually starts with “Tell me about yourself”. Then they go through the resume, and ask about the project (DDP, in this case) and internship. This was done by the HR team, just to see how the candidate is putting forth his ideas and contributions clearly. Two puzzles were given in the interview.The interview was at least 40 minutes, with 5 minutes of HR interview HR people were not interested in the depth of the resume, but rather on whether the candidate was able to talk or not. It was used to eliminate some people.
Tips: People with low CGPA had to perform exceptionally well to compensate for the low CGPA. For managerial positions, PoRs like coordships, coreships etc can be used to pitch your leadership qualities. They can start a chain of conversation that involves the work you did, on how you managed to execute the task efficiently, which ends up working in your favor.
