Hi Friends
There are three rounds of selection procedure.
1. Listening Skills: In this part, a conversation between two persons will be played in a cassette player and a question paper containing questions relevant to the conversation will be asked. Don,t worry about it, there will be a pause to answer each question after each conversation and the conversation is not a lengthy one. The reason for my failure is that I didn,t concentrate to the conversation when it was played rather I was reading the questions. So, I was trying to answer the previous question when the next conversation was going on. So if you are going to attend the test dont do whatever I have stated above. Just listen coolly and answer without frustration.
2. Communication Skills: In this part, you have to meet the HR person and he will test your communication skills. For girls, they usually ask only two question:
i. Tell about yourself
ii. Tell about your family background
In this section, American accent, vocabulary resource, grammar are considered mainly. So before going there find out some hi-fi words in dictionary so that you can impress the person. Guys will be asked few more questions apart from those listed above in this section:
i. The candidate will be asked to tell something about his pen and a time of 30 seconds will be given for that.
ii. Or the candidate will be asked to sell a pen to the HR person thinking him as a customer.
3. Technical Skills: In this part, you will be asked questions regarding operating system (Windows), Hardware (simple questions), networking, etc.
Questions regarding OS will be like:
i How to install a modem and its driver in windows
ii How to connect to the internet
iii How to view device manager, task manager, control panel and its contents
You would be knowing everything if you were given a system but the thing is, you have to answer the steps involved in viewing these windows. For instance, if you were asked how to change screen saver; you have to answer in the way that it should be understandable to one who uses a system for the first time i.e. you should say, goto desktop and right click your mouse then click on properties.. (like this). Is it ok, clear!
Few other questions are expansion of USB, LPT, COM, etc; how many devices can be connected to a USB port in a system and how many hard disks can be connected to a system, etc.
If you are selected in the 3 rounds, you will be asked to join the next day and appointment order can be got on the same day itself i.e if you are selected you can come home with your appointment order in the evening itself.
