Webyog Interview pattern Full

WEBYOG's written test.

At first, i received a mail to complete an assignment and submit it. I did the same and got shortlisted for the next round(written test).

The written test pattern was as follows:
I got Set- C, so i only know about that :mrgreen:

1. Which is your favorite algorithm? Why?
2. Which programming trick in C++/Java you like the most? Why?

And then there were 8 questions out of which 4 were to be answered (No issues on your selection of questions)

C/C++
1. WAP to delete the middle integer number from an array of size 10.
2. Write a function using pointers to reverse a string. (signature of function was provided).

Java
1. WAP to enter 2 integers from Command Line and add them.
2. WAP to reverse a string and display it.

Javascript
1. Write a function to delete the duplicate words in a given string. (A string was provided)
2. Write a function to delete the integers present in a string. (A string was provided)

And 2 questions on DotNet which i don't remeber as i didn't attempt :oops:

I advice you to study DBMS also along with brushing up any 3 of these languages as the pattern keeps on changing.
A little knowledge of Networking will also be handy...

TCS PATTERN & INTERVIEW

TCS conducted campus interviews for our college students . It follows 3 or 4 stages based on panel you were sent through the Selection Procedure. The stages may be

 1. Written Test
    common for everyone except for top 5 in circuit branches like ECE, CSE, IT, EEE, EIE
    Top 5 students in above mentioned branches can attend direct TECHNICAL INTERVIEW
  
    written test was held on 27th of November.
    The test was of duration 1hour 20 min containing 35 questions  with 1 mark for every positive response and one-third negative marks for wrong option chosen
    There will be different slots for the written test.
    The questions will be quantative aptitude only with a mix of logical reasoning and sometimes very lengthy questions but simple logic
    if you know the concept there will be sufficient time for the questions

          The better way deal the written test is to solve as many as previous papers possible. Form a study group and discuss the problems of previous papers throughly and know the concept in them. This is just enough to crack written exam why because TCS gives repeated  questions with just change in numbers. I give 100% assurance if you this method to crack the written exam.

I wrote my written test in the opening slot as per my TCS registration number. It is an online exam. Be careful with the controls (like button) and dont submit your test in a hurry manner as you may be disqualified. I answered questions randomly and tried to maximize my score with accuracy. After a complete overlook i picked one by one carefully and then answered them. Finally as the time is up i answered 33 questions and i have doubt on one question and for the other when i tried to attemped to it my time was over.

 The results were declared around 8pm. I got on to next round. Totally 383 students cleared the test from our college and 59 from our department (including top 5)      

2. Technical Interview
    
         As per my experience if you have minimum basics in your subjects it is easy to get through. you should be able to speak clearly in english with confidence.It is in your hands to get the interviewer into your field.

   My Interview was Technical-cum-Management Round
   i entered the room around 4 pm. He said me take your seat. I sat on chair before interviewer holding my file on my lap. Through out my interview i was positive, responsive and confident. the interviewer saw my name BHARGAVA RAM KOTI on my resume and said yours is very powerful name isnt' it ..he said. I said "yes sir"

 he asked what subject do you Know?

 i said only JAVA and nothing more than that. here one thing is important. if you know any subject very well whether if you 1 or 2 it doesnt
 matter. It becomes important  how you answer the questions. the dont care how many subjects you know. If you know even 1 subject perfect thats enough to crack the interview.

He asked me "Ok Bharagava Ram mention about urself "

   I started with my schooling ,intermediate and about my study in BEC .I mentioned my SUN CERTIFICATION IN JAVA. I also said that my college gave me enough exposure to give equal importance for extra-circular, co-circular activities (because i have won many prizes in various technical,literary events) and my academics. Additionally i said that i said my performance was consistent  from 10th to B.tech as percentage was very near.

after this,
He then asked me suddenly a managerial question "If you are in a institution, you have done enough hardwork and there is no recognition and other one is recognised.how will solve such Problem"?
I then replied "When i am in a team i want only work to be completed and i said i dont want recognition"
The interviewer said "You should definitely say me the solution"
I responded as "sir, at present i have never such problem .when i get into real corporate world my experience in the industry will solve such kind of Problems"
the interviewer said "ok very good"
He asked About JAVA
I said complete history of Java and how it was comparitvely evolved as of C and C++
He then asked me "give me the differences between c and java"
I replied as "platform independent,garbage collection, pointers"
he then said me to say new differences other than those.
i replied a bit different by explaining turbo c, c++ compilers in c and about javac compiler in JAVA and the information about how java was useful in EJB's  of enterprise applications and compared to C language
He suddenly asked the "What is EJB"?  so, be cautous about what you speak.!!!
I said about EJB (Enterprise Java Beans) as we have them in 4-1 semester as a part of our curriculum  and most recent one!!
He finally asked "When you many oppurtunities like MS and M.tech. Why do you prefer this job????"
I said i am a programmar in JAVA and i won many prizes in technical events.this wants me to established in software industry.My family conditions also compelled me to go to job due to fininancial problems.
he then said "thank you,all the best"

there were some students send to MR (Management Round) and then to Human Resources Round.

3. HR Interview

   It was around 2:15 pm on 29th Nov. Before i entered my interview room there was power loss. I reached the and i stopped at the door,but my interviewer called me in the dark  with a hand move. I went inside and he asked me to take mn theren y seat.

He then asked me "what man before u came inside why there is a power loss??"
I said as "exceptional case"
he then said "Elders say that when there is light they say something good will happen but what's this????"
I replied him as "when we are dedicated and such kind of obstacles dont have any effect and we have to carry on our own work as there will be problems in life."
"ok" he said
He asked me "Why TCS"?
. i said him few points and he asked me "have the biscuit on table"
I hesitated to take for 3 times as he was repeatedly asking and finally ate with answering the question
he then asked my family background and my sister edcation
I replied him by saying them
Now its the "chocolate turn" he asked asked to eat that but i refused and he said he would give  it to next member. I said "noproblem"
He finally asked me two weaknesses
I said my weakness
He said "ok Bhargav ALL THE BEST Thnk you"

MY Interview was over.

I came out and waited for result.

They declared results after 8:30pm and i got placed in TCS. 234 from our college and 35 from our department.

Here one thing is important. You should be very interactive and give positive reponse. My HR interview so strange when compared to others.you should be in a position to handle any situation. When they ask you to say about "Tell me about yourself". Be well prepared to say uninterruptedly.

Finally, ALL THE BEST for your future proceedings

HR interview with Infosys on 07 SEP 2011 in PATIALA

Following is an approximate narration of my HR interview with Infosys. The answers mentioned here need not be correct. But I managed to stay confident and somehow got selected. (I couldn’t remember all of it, but it’s nearly the same)

Note: Most of the questions are raised from your resume, so always have enough knowledge about each thing that you mention. I hope it can help.

“Good afternoon sir” v Good-afternoon, please have a seat.
“Thank you” v Fill up this sheet.
A sheet with columns for my rollno, name and signature was filled.
Give me your resume.
I opened the portfolio, took out the resume and handed over gently
So your father works in NTPC?
“No sir, my mother is a school teacher there and thus we are living in the quarter allotted to us. My father is a businessman”
What kind of business?
“He deals with plastic bottles and their marketing”
Only marketing? No manufacturing?
“Manufacturing as well, but not on that level”
Interviewer analyzes the resume
What is this KPS?
“It is Kalka Public School in New Delhi, I lived there in a hostel during my +1 and +2.”
So what difference did you find in the hostel life?
“I learned a lot of things in the hostel, being independent and understanding people are some of them. Also, as I am the only child of my parents, I learned sharing stuff and adjusting with my room-mates there.”
Other than the unavailability of home-cooked food, what problems did you face in the hostel?
“I missed the guidance of my father, because at home he was always there for me guiding me through every walk of life. This was somaething I had to learn to live without.”
I am talking about the problems in your hostel.
“Oh! In the hostel itself, brooming and washing my clothes was a new thing for me as I never did it at home.”
So how did you manage?
“I learnt it eventually as I had no other option; moreover all my fellow hostellers were facing the same problems so we all helped each other.”
After what time did you wash your clothes? Once a month or once a week?
“Once a week, because I had enough clothes with me to manage for that period of time”
So how did you get into this University, via AIEEE or what?
“Yes, I came here through AIEEE. There was a counselling organized by PTU and as my rank was good enough, I got the seat here.”
So where are you living now?
“I live outside the university in a rented room as I couldn’t get the hostel in the first place due to the shortage of rooms”
How many roomies do you have?
“Earlier I was living alone, but now there are 3 of us.”
Who does the cleaning here? Do you have any turns for that?
“No sir, we don’t do it by turn. All three of us clean the room together once a week by dividing the work. Like… one of us would be brooming while the other would be cleaning the stuff, etc”
And what about the food; who cooks?
“None of us can cook, so we have our food outside. As the university allows us to open an account at the hostel mess, we used to eat there but these days we are relying on the outside restaurants and Dhabas, because we found that the food quality is good here.”
You didn’t find the food quality good in Delhi?
“We have all kind of food in Delhi and with pretty good quality as well. But the hygiene and quantity was not that good as compared to Punjab if we talk about it at the student level. I mean within my budget.”
And what kind of problems did you find here?
“I didn’t find many problems here, as the people are very helping and friendly. I made friends quickly and managed well. Of course the language problem was there at first because I didn’t know Punjabi, but I got over it soon.”
So how many friends do you have here?
“Well I don’t have an exact count of them coz there are many, actually I have been hanging out with a lot of people”
And what about good friends?
“Again there are many and for my birthday if I treat all of them, the count reaches about 40 easily. But if being together all the time is your concern, then there are just 3 of us.”
Which stream do you have here?
“Computer science”
You had it by choice or by default?
“By choice sir!”
Which is the mother branch of computer science?
“I am not sure about that, but it is a kind of science. So maybe the mother branch is Science only”
(Please email me the correct answer at kushal.ashok@gmail.com)

So where did you do your summer training?
“I had my summer training at HCL CDC Ghaziabad and made a project using Dot NET, but I really enjoyed my training at MSME in Delhi, when I learned Mobile Phone repairing. We learned how to check all the components, by using the circuit diagram and a lot of other things.”
Do we have the same circuit diagram for all brands of mobile?
“No sir, each model has a different circuit diagram. Of course the components are mostly the same, but knowing the circuit is very important for repairing.”
Where do you get this circuit diagram from?
“All these are easily available at Gaffar market in Carol Bagh, Delhi. Rather one can buy the whole mobile repairing kit from there as it is the hub for mobile phones.”
So if we bring a mobile from America, can we make it work here in India?
“Yes sir, we can make it work, because the technology used behind is the same these days. The only difference might be coz of the radio frequencies. If the phone supports enough frequency bands, we can make it happen. Also, there are certain codes and methods which can unlock the phone and make it work in a different scenario.”

What are the main causes of defects in a mobile?
“There are three major causes… moisture, dust and shock. For those with shock, we mostly need to check the components but we can try getting rid of the dust and moisture by cleaning the mobile with acetone.”

And you like motorcycling?
“Yes sir, it is my favourite hobby. I have joined a club in Delhi and we organize various trips which are open to all. Generally the motorcycling clubs have some restrictions like… you need to own a particular kind of bike like Royal Enfield. But we never had such restrictions in our club.”
But one still need to have a motorcycle to join, right?
“Yes sir, but one can be a pillion rider as well and we encourage and arrange the rides for those who don’t have a vehicle but want to join”
Do you have 2-stroke or 4 stroke bikes?
“2 stroke motorcycles are not in the market sir, most of them are 4 stroke”
What do you mean by 4 stroke?
“Sorry sir, I do not have the answer for that. But I always try to learn more and more by paying attention and learning from my mechanic when I get my bike serviced.”
(The four strokes refer to intake, compression, combustion (power), and exhaust cycles that occur during two crankshaft rotations per power cycle of the four cycle engines. reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-stroke_engine )
But as you are so much interested in motorcycling, you must know this right?
“Definitely sir, but I am still learning and as you have mentioned it I am certainly going to Google it when I get back home.”
Which bike do you have?
“I have a Bajaj XCD right now”
What is the horse power that it provides?
“It’s around 12 bhp”
What do you understand by rpm? And how does it affect a bike?
“It is rotations per minute. When one needs to buy a bike, the one which can produce more bhp at lesser rpm is considered to be more powerful. Also there is a bore to stroke ratio which is directly proportional to the engine’s output. The bore means diameter of the cylinder bore and stroke is the length through which the piston moves.”
Ok. Do you have any questions?
“No sir”
Thank you
“Thank you sir, it was really nice talking to you”

* sizeof()

3. Datatypes are

char – 1 byte

int – 2 bytes

short int – 2 bytes

float – 4 bytes

long int – 4 bytes

double – 8 bytes

4. Scope of variable
View Raw Code?

    #include<iostream.h>;
    int a; //<strong> Global variable</strong>
    void main()
    {
    int b; // <strong>Local Variables</strong>
    static int c; // Static variable, which is initialized to 0 automatically
    cout<<c;

Therefore 65x+35(x-1)=390

65x+35x=390+35

100x=425

x=425/100

x=4(1/4) which is 4.15 hrs

So 10+4.15 hrs=2.15 pm
