Hello Friends
I am very happy to tell u people that I got through Satyam. I want to thank all the members of the group. Many many thanks to Friends madam. I am a 2002 MCA pass out. I was very frustrated, since I was not getting a job. I just want to tell u people that keep aiming, keep planning.
I got the mail-id of Satyam through group only. The recruitment process consisted of 3 rounds.
1. Written test
2. Group Discussion
3. Interview
1. Written test was of 30 minutes, 15 questions. +1 or -1/4 (negative correction was there) The paper was of Logical Aptitude
Some questions were very easy like-
one-third of a number is also half. (Ans.3/2)
arranging the sentences in a sequence.
counting the number of a\'s, b\'s, i\'s etc in a sentence decoding the codes.(some numbers and corresponding letters for them will be given - very easy - new code
and old codes will be there)
5 ltr and 3 ltr, will be there 4 ltr has to be weighed.
Some questions were confusing. Don\'t attempt the questions if u r not sure.
I think for this paper, you can\'t have a book to refer. It depends on how u analyse the questions at that time. Be cool, don\'t get tensed.
2.Group Discussion for those who clear the test. I got the topic-"Why is Indian Hockey limping" You have to speak and tell something different (hightlight a point which is not made by other members of the group). I think they see leadership quality, Taking Initiative etc.
I came to know the two other topics, which were - "UN\'s peace activities" and "America\'s war on Iraq".
If u clear this round u will move on to interview.
3. It consists of HR and technical interview.- both will be held at the same time by two people In HR interview they ask questions like - tell about yourself, your parents, brothers, sisters. why should I recruit u?, What r your interests, hobbies-quesitons on that.
In technical interview I was asked questions on - circular linked list, OOPs features(encapsulation, inheritance etc.), How a C program will be executed?
(First preprocessing, compiling etc.), Difference between Java and C++, about bite code, threads and process, applets, Virtual functions, abstract class,
public, private, protected, etc.
I heard that some people were asked questions on DBMS, microprocessors, C, OS
Questions on your project.
While answering be confident, if don\'t know the answer admit frankly.
