level. Speed and accuracy is vital, so be sure to practice that. Several mock
tests are available online which you could check out. You need to pass the
aptitude test to be called for the interview.

2 Rounds of Interview
The interview consists of two rounds—technical and HR. The good thing about the
interview is that the questions generally revolve around your CV. Apart from
exhibiting domain knowledge; remember to be polite and confident since your
communication skills are also being assessed.

 Technical round: Candidates are generally asked questions based on their


CV and their area of interest. Sound knowledge of at least one programming
language, information about operating systems, and awareness of the latest
emerging technologies are some things that could help you notch up a good
score in this round.
 HR round: The technical round is followed by the HR interview. The
objective here is to assess whether you are a good fit for the company.
The scope of questioning is wide, ranging from your background, to
your hobbies, and even your view of life! Be prepared to face
questions intended to gauge your sincerity in applying for the job.
These are some questions you could expect:

 Tell me about yourself.


 Tell us one thing that makes you stand out against all other candidates.
 Describe the toughest moment in your life, and tell us how you managed
it.
 Tell me a strength that you also consider a weakness.
 What do you know about our company?

 Selection Process
The Selection Procedure involves the following two stages.

1. Aptitude Test
2. Interviews
STAGE I: APTITUDE TEST

Aptitude Test is an integral component in the entire scheme of the selection process. This stage is
very important and if one does not clear this stage, then one cannot move to the next stage in the
selection process, which is usually the Interviews. There are three sections for the Aptitude Test as
outlined below.

Section 1: Mathematical Critical thinking (10 questions – 35 minutes)

This section consists of questions from different topics like Permutation & Combination, Probability,
Time & Work, Time & Distance, Equations, Ratio, Proportion, Variation, Percentages, Profit and
Loss, Partnership etc.

Section 2: Analytical thinking (15 questions – 25 minutes)

This section consists of questions from topics like Syllogisms, Puzzles (Seating Arrangement,
Distribution etc), Non Verbal Reasoning, Blood Relationship, Data Interpretation, Data Sufficiency
etc.

Section 3: Test of English Communication (40 qs – 35 minutes)

This section consists of questions from topics like Reading Comprehension, Synonyms, Antonyms,
Idioms & Phrases, Fill in the blanks, Para jumbles, Grammar (Sentence Correction, Sentence
Improvement, Spotting the error etc)

STAGE II: INTERVIEW

The interviews are conducted to test a candidate's knowledge of self, his career plans, hobbies,
interests, achievements, knowledge about his specialization etc. Questions can be drawn from any
area. It is expected that a candidate has a clear career goal or objective when he/she faces an
interview panel. If one is from the department of Mechanical Engineering, then it is expected that
one has a good command over the subjects one has learnt in one's engineering. At the same time,
candidates need to show interest in the field of IT and come up with a convincing answer as to why
they are shifting their field from "Mechanical Engineering" to "IT". Overall, one's confidence and
one's knowledge are the key attributes which would be checked here.
