When I was in B.Tech Final
year, I attended campus interview for the first time. We assembled in the
auditorium and given brief introduction about their company.
First round: Written test.
Criteria
for written test:
v Should
have 75% aggregate from 10th to B.Tech 3rd Year
v One
backlog in B.Tech was allowed.
v No written
test for the students who were having more than 75% from 10th to B.Tech 3rd
Year
v I am
having more than 75% till B.Tech so I did n’t have written test.
Second Round: Technical Round
v We were
divided into panels and each panel consists of about 20 students.
v My turn was
after 17 members, I was waiting for my turn since morning 8.AM to 7.PM. I was
little tensed as it was my first interview.
v Finally my
turn came at 7 PM.
Few Questions
(the Questions would be like):
1.
Tell me about yourself?
2.
Tell me about your family members?
3.
Tell me about your education?
4.
What is your Favorite Subject?
After telling my favorite subject they asked
nearly 10 to 15 questions in my favorite subject.
5.
What is your another favorite Programming Language?
I answered
C++ and Java then he started again asking questions
1.
Write a
Simple program in C++?
I was able
to write he is ok with the program.
2.
Then he has
given one scenario and asked me to write another program which I was unable to.
Then he asked again and again to try but I am only able to explain the logic.
6.
He asked few general questions like politics, games, about
family background?
7.
About preferred job location?
In middle of
my interview there was a power cut, and then he started asking me related to
power.
8.
He has asked me about power formula and some questions regarding
physics.
Since I was unable to write the
program and unable to answer few questions I am was not confident on the
interview, but after some time they announced my name and yeah I was selected
for the next round. I felt very happy and was waiting for HR round.
I asked few of my Friends who
attended for HR round, they told that HR round is very easy and they were
asking about general things like movies, hobbies.
I was waiting with Mr. Perfect
Movie story, but as it was already 10’ PM for my turn they asked me to come
next day. I was completely in tension for whole night.
I taught that HR round would be
very easy. I had another experience than my friends.
1.
Explain your Contributions in the presentations which your have
given in the college?
2.
What you know about our company?
3.
Explain about the Android Versions which you know?
4.
Which phone are you using?
5.
I answer Nokia and again he asked which software are they using
for Nokia?
6.
Have you read the bond before you signed?
Asked few
questions related to bond paper.
I was unable to answer few more
questions but he asked me to try and try and I have given some answers but he
is not satisfied and he told again to try but I am unable to convince him.
Finally he told me all the best and I said thank you and left from there .It
was kind of a stress interview.
Since I am unable to answer few
questions I am not sure of positive results
Finally, the day has come-the BIG
day to announce results of the selected students.
I was not sure I would crack that
interview as I did n’t answer few questions. After some time they started
announcing results and there was a mini heart attack (tension) as I was not
sure of the result. They announced my name. I did n’t expect, I felt very surprised
and shouted happily.
I answered very confidently if I know,
if I don’t know I said I don’t know. It’s the key point to my success.
Finally I understand that the
interviewer expects our confidence more than our technical skills.
We should not expect that
interview questions should be same for all.
