Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The tests are really easily.
Tips: Not much preparation is required if you are good at English and have good communication skills. It would be better if you tune your brain to solving puzzles before doing the test by trying some for an hour or so before the test..
Duration: 90 minutes

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: They didn't ask any technical questions for my interview and if they do ask you any they are just testing how you are going to respond to them and see how clear you are in giving out information. Basically they are just testing your communication skills and if you can prove useful to them in terms of learning ability.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: They asked me about myself and my background including family related information. They asked me questions regarding how i would deal with situations. For example, how i would improve sales and production for a product if
the job was given to me on the spot. He gave me a minute to think. I took half a minute and told him what i would do and he was impressed by my quick thinking (another factor which they are looking for).
Tips: They are very friendly during the interview and so there is not much reason to be nervous. In fact they helped me speak more freely than i thought i would.
Intense preparation is not required.
Act normal during the interview.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: Aptitude was very easy and not much preparation was necessary
Tips: .Just look R.S. Agrawal for normal concepts and formulae.
Duration: 150 minutes

Round: HR Interview
Experience: In HR the interviewer asked about my family and after that he asked whether i have any plans for higher studies. 
After that i was asked a question on organisation (management type)-to plan the parking of 500 cars in college. I told him my plan of action. And after that i was asked a question on my project.
It was very cool and i enjoyed it a lot. Though the panel people were all old they were friendly.I just maintained mycool and calm and it worked well.
Tips: If you can crack the aptitude, then you are almost done with your placement, but be careful with the HR round.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: general maths and English questions are asked in the aptitude test.
Duration: 140 minutes

Round: HR Interview
Experience: Only HR interview is taken for Infosys. 
Interview was for 10-15 minutes.
He was only checking  communication skills. If you  speak fluently in English and show confidence , then you can easily secure the job. He asked me to take a topic of my choice and speak about it continuously for two minutes. Then he gave a situation and asked me how i would handle it. The
situation was-  a national seminar is going to be organised in your college and I being the coordinator for the organizing group,  how would I handle the situation and make arrangements.
Tips: When you go to a software company, say that i have lot of interest in joining software company and i did not like my core subjects. He will definitely ask you why you want to shift to software. 
Your CGPA does not matter in software companies(CTS,TCS,INFOSYS). Dont forget to say that i have long term commitment towards joining the company.
No need to revise C,C++ for this company.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Experience: The test comprised two sections-one logical reasoning section and one english section. Each has its own time limit.For logical reasoning you need to be a little quick on your logic. The questions will be pretty simple and anyone doing a reasonable amount of preparation for CAT or GRE can easily go through. For english, stress was given more on correcting sentences.No synonyms or antonyms were asked. If you are intuitively good in high school english,this should be a cake walk.Else practice very basic english. Few questions were very tricky and in one of the questions ,3 options had an answer starting with a capital letter and only 1 with a small letter.The trick is that the answer is a part of a sentence and hence it cannot start with a capital letter.
Tips: Be very careful and my personal suggestion is don't do the passages first. You will waste a lot of time there.
Duration: 70 minutes

Round: HR Interview
Experience: The interview was for around 15 minutes .But I had to wait for nearly 8 hours for my turn. I got in and the old man siting in his chair stood up and shook hands with me. He asked about my father and my brother. Then he asked why IT when u have chemical. I said I was interested in IT profession. Then he asked are you not depriving someone of an opportunity who is interested in chemical. I said I gave my preference to the college while joining and was not bothered about branch. The argument went on for around 3-4 minutes. I stood by my answer and it seemed to impress him.He asked a memorable incident and i told him about Golden jubilee night andmy tenure as DND secretary and how i could take a decision democratically in a decisive situation (DND members should be knowing this..October 9th). Then he asked me how i would organise a national level cultural fest.Since I had organised spring spree events, that experience helped me a lot. In fact the experience as secretary proved its worth in the interview. Then he stood up again and shook my hands again ,remember this is a sort of stress analysis. He is actually checking how confident you are before and after the interview.
Tips: While you are there in the interview keep talking about team building skills and leadership qualities you possess and practical examples if you can cite any. Be cool and confident and dont get shaken by their questions, remember theyare always testing you. If you are serious about the job, don't tell them that you are preparing for CAT or GRE. It is definitely not difficult to crack the interview if you are a little careful and confident.ALL THE BEST.
