Placement Papers - Mahindra Satyam

Hi Friends

I am a student from C.M.R institute of technology, Medchal currently pursuing ECE 3 year 2 semester.

We were informed that we had the interview for Satyam in Vardhman college just 3 days before. Immediately i just browsed through the chapters like: time and distance, permutations and combinations, probability, pyramids, series, calender,simple interest, compound interest, work, speed, boat and train problems etc. friends remember "it is the perfection in your concept that matters but not how mamy chapters you have studied. i could not get time to prepare for the technical round or other technical subjects.

I went to the exam very confidently. when the paper was given most of friends just started doing no sooner did they receive the paper. i was very cool and confident and so i spent my first 5 minutes in sitting calmly and watching others. then i slowly took the paper and read all the questions 15 questions and i was able to answer about 3 questions in the first glance itself. then slowly i started doing slightly tough problems which i thought i would do with some thought. I solved each problem atleast twice before marking as i knew there was negative marking and also lower cut off and upper cut off. So i marked only 8 questions which i am still 100% sure.

Friends mark only if you are 100% sure. try to see that you do not change your answer. Most of my friends marked around 10-15 questions and could not clear written. So please ensure that you answer 7-10 questions perfectly then you are definitely through with write.

next day it was technical+ hr.
my turn came around 5.00 pm
me: may i come in sir? (smile)
intervier: yes (very serious)

he was scanning through my resume form we filled the previous day. we were asked to even write an essay. my topic was "role of media in the society" i wrote only the positive points in the essay. my first question was: "tell me about yourself"

i replied it very confidently with eye to eye contact and a gentle smile on my lips with a clear voice and proper hand movements. then he asked "what is your opinion about the essay role of media in the society" i said "sir i have mentioned only the positive points in my essay. i told him all the positive points. we can also look at it in the negative sense and gave him few more points. "he was very much impressed by my multi-dimension approach. i answered this question alone for 5 minutes.

Next he asked me what were my 3-2 subjects and i answered him confidently. again he asked me my 3-1 subjects. i told him all and specifically told him that communication were my favourite as ECE student. especially digital communication.

then he asked "what is digital communication?"
i answered him every minute point in digital communication the entire subject with diagrams in 5 minutes.
he was impressed!he smiled and said good!
ok thank you Nitish you can go with a smile on his face.
i thanked him and came out of the room very confidently.
i knew i was selected.
the results were declared around 10.30 pm that day and i became a SATYAMITE. thnx to all
