Placement Papers - ORACLE

Degree: B.E. Electrical & Electronics

TECHNICAL INTERVIEW:

There was only one interviewer.
- Tell me about yourself.
- Why is your CGPA low?
- Asked me to write an SQL query on Joins.
- Asked me about entity-relationship model.
- Looked at my CV, asked me in detail regarding my projects.
- Extra-curricular activities.
- If I had any questions for him.

TIPS TO APPLICANTS:

Prepare the general questions well. For example, "Tell me about yourself". The interviewer doesn\'t want to know where you studied or what your hobbies are. You should paint a picture of yourself so as the interviewer knows what kind of a person you\'re. And, don\'t speak for more than 2 mins!

Relax yourself. Think of the interview as a conversation with a stranger, not as a job interview.

Answer the questions tactfully. Take your time, think the answers in your head for a few seconds and communicate clearly. Follow the KISS principle - Keep it Simple and Straightforward.

You should know what the company does, who its clients are etc. Read the company profile.

Ask him 3-4 good questions when your turn comes. Prepare such questions beforehand.

Prepare well in advance for the technical interview - basics of C/C++, SQL, databases. Avoid cramming for interviews.

It\'s important that you do not skip your breakfast/lunch in the process. Trust me, you can\'t give your 100% if you skip your meals.

All the best! Hope this helps!
