      Interview

      I applied through campus.The interview consists of three rounds in total.Online round,technical round and hr Online round: This was the first round and it consists of few multiple choice questions on quantitative and logical along with some reasoning questions.This round requires a webcam so be prepared for that and also the images taken from the webcam during the exam will be reviewed in the next round. Second round: I got shortlisted and the second round was held in my campus.This was the technical round.first they reviewed all my documents like Xth,inter and btech certificates and also pan and passport documents have to be submitted.After thorough verification you will be called for the technical round. In tr i was basic programming questions like array,sql,pointers,inheritance etc and also told to write few programs.It was quite easy for me but for you it depends on the person who is asking you the questions. I completed my tr and went further for my hr Third round: Finally it was hr time and it was simple.All the questions asked in hr were personal questions and about the company etc.They tend to see your body language and your language fluency.
