At 9.30 am they gave PPT(Pre Placement Talk) and They told some good points related to the growth and about company which drag my attention towards HCL.

The whole process was of two rounds.
1) Written Test – 75 marks
2) Interview (Technical/HR)

Round 1: Written Test

First one is the written test which contains

1. Quantitative.
2. Logical&Analytical Reasoning.
3. Verbal.
4. C Questions.

Duration for the test period was 75 minutes and no.of questions was 75. The paper was not that much easy . Time seemed to be not sufficient. Regular practice can make u to finish it with the given time. So work out as many problems and you will feel it very easy.

Written started for us at 9.30 am and finished at 10.45 am results announced after PPT(Pre Placement Talk) which was gone for 45 mins) and they told some good points related to the growth and about company which drag my attention towards HCL.

Those are
1. The ‘Employees First,Customers Second’ philosophy.
2. 18 months bonds
3. 90 days training , We will sit on a project on 90 th day.
4. Compensation is also very good(3.25 per annum).

At around 12.00 pm results were announced .Thank GOD my name was in that list (101out of 311)

Refer the following books.

Round 2: Technical/HR Interview

Next round is INTERVIEW(Technical/HR) . More no of students including me could not success in this round.

Only thing you have to do is be cool and confident. My name was allotted at the last according to alphabetical order.There were four panels.The interview started at 12.30 pm .I had waited for long time till 7.30 pm and I was completely tired with full day tension.I went at 7.30 pm.One thing I realized that we should at least have some water if u have not taken food.

The main things to be followed in Interview.

2.MAKE SURE WITH THE VOICE MODULATION.
3.KEEP EYE CONTACT WITH INTERVIEWER.

If u follow all these then u can feel success. In this round u have to be confident in ur area of interest and if u r a electronics student be confident with ur electronics basics.

Regarding C programming just go through some simple programs like
FIBANOCCI SERIES
FACTORIAL

GENERATION OF PRIME NO
MATRIX MULTIPLICATION,……etc

Then we were asked to sit outside and we waited for the results. After an hour , two HR came and started telling that results will be announced after one day.With full of tension I came back and waited for the result but bad luck for me I was not amongst those in the list.

Totally 34 students got selected from our college.So friends have faith in GOD , work hard and success will be yours.

Stay as cool as you could and that will fetch you the job… Don’t lose your hopes and confidence at any time

All the very best!!!
