Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: I had a standard resume for this company as per our institute placement cell norms.
I usually changed my “Areas of Interest” as per the company profile. For Headstrong I mentioned subjects that dealt with coding and data structure.
Round: Test
Experience: First round was a written test containing 90 aptitude based questions and the time allotted for the same was 90 minutes. Questions were of high difficulty level; most of the questions based on probability, permutation and combination. 40 people were shortlisted out of the 180 applicants.
Duration: 90 minutes
Total Questions: 90
Round: Group Discussion
Experience: In Group Discussion there were 11 people in my group. The topic for the discussion was the “impact of family drama daily soaps (saas bahu serials) on the society”. Almost all of us agreed to the fact that these serials were sending wrong message to the society. They were interested in students who were expressive. 3 people got selected from my group.
Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The first round was a technical interview. Questions related to my family and areas of interest were also asked though. Questions related to C++ were asked and the topic of data structure was their main focus. They asked me questions on linked list and other forms of data structure. Finally they asked few general puzzles too. This interview continued for around 20 minutes.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: In the HR interview, questions were asked on why they should choose me and why I had opted for Headstrong. They also asked which location I would prefer for the job. They wanted someone who would be comfortable with any location whether it be south or north India. This last interview was small and lasted around 5-10 minutes.
Tips: Preparation of puzzles foe the interview would be beneficial.

After that he came on programming, He asked me very basic concept about C++. Questions were like what is polymorphism, What is encapsulation. He also asked program of fibonacci series. After all these question he again looked at my resume and asked me 'why your CGPA is low?' I said that when i was in my first year i had interest in electronics but later when i encountered with programming i decided to have my career in this field so i could not concentrate on my core subjects.
Tips: C++ is '''''must''''' for Virtusa if you are from electronics . I didn't know data structure but c++ was on my fingers. Answer question with confidence.
Round: HR Interview
Experience: HR interview was really cool. Interview asked me about myself, my family, real life applications of my project. After that he came on real stuff. He asked question like why do you want to join virtusa? I said virtusa is this .. virtusa is this.....and many more..and in last i said this is i want to join virtusa. Next question was ' what do think about dowry?'. At first i was surprised to hear this question but i realized that interview only want to check my ability to speak on random topic. I answered the question by criticizing dowry and he was pleased to hear my answer. After one or two general HR question like location preference , he told me that your interview is over please wait outside for result. It was really nice to meet you . Thank you.
