Hi friends, I am Tanmoy Parida 4m ITER, Bhubaneswar . Hexaware visited our college 4 campus selection on 15- 16th April, 2008

It had 3 rounds
1. WRITTEN
2. GD
3. TECHNICAL+HR

1. WRITTEN ROUND:
It had 2 sections. First one is aptitude + English + reasoning & second one is technical. As I am an Electrical student language or database Qs were not there. We had Qs 4m Electrical machines, control system, AEC, Microprocessor and DEC. This was also 4 ENTC & AE&I students. Mechanical students were not allowed.

Aptitude section was relatively easier than technical. If u have done R.S. Aggarwal then the 1st section is not a thing 2 b worried of. But technical section need basic fundamentals of all d mentioned subjects.

Total 100 Qs were there and 1hr was given 2 solve that. Be careful because there were sectional cut off as well as overall cut off.
Around 250 students appeared 4 written test n 123 cleared it. Luckily I was one of them who got selected.

2. GD ROUND:
This is the elimination round. In this round they basically look 4 creativity n presence of mind n also confidence. Don't panic .12 guys were there in my group. Ours GD was a bit diff. We were divided into 3 groups n each group were given a topic each, like we had THINKING BIG , LADDER TO SUCCESS. We were told to give an instance or make a play so that the ideas of d topic that we got come out. Also we were told not to mention d name of d topic directly during our presentation. We were given 2 minutes 2 prepare. Then the instructor asked each group one by one 2 give their presentation. After we all finished they asked everybody 2 give their views n draw conclusion 4m all d 3 topics that were given 2 us.
Others groups had normal gd, some topics were JOINT FAMILY Vs nuclear family , role of govt. in IT sector, Arrange marriage Vs love marriage etc.
35 students including me cleared this round.
