WIPRO PAPER ON 28th APRIL AT RAJKOT
Hello Friends..!! It really feels amazing to become a wiproite at an age of 20..!! I am a student of 6th semester EC at VVP Engineering College, Rajkot.
On 28th April, 2007 Wipro visited my college for an on campus interview for students of Saurashtra University. 1400 Students appeared in it and only 40 got selected. So I m feeling really great to be amongst those lucky 40 gems..!!
The Entire test procedure was like this...
[1] APTITUDE TEST
- VERBAL TEST (15 Questions)
- QUANTITATIVE TEST (15 Questions)
- TECHNICAL TEST (20 Questions)
[2] TECHNICAL INTERVIEW
[3] H.R. INTERVIEW
[1] APTUTUDE TEST (9:45 am-10:45am)
-VERBAL TEST (15 Questions)
U need a very strong VOCABULARY to clear the Verbal Section. I suggest you to refer GRE BARRONS for it. Prepare all the HIGH FREQUENCY WORDS FROM BARRONS. IT IS MUST. OTHERWISE NON-ENGLISH MEDIUM STUDENTS WILL SUFFER A LOT.
They ask questions like:
*Identify the INAPPROPRIATE WORD from the words given below
(1) Procedure (2) Continuity (3) Perseverance (4) Pause
*I think Three grammatical Questions were there.
*Find most APPROPRIATE WORD for the given sentence from the given choices.
In short IMPROVE YOUR VOCABULARY
THATS THE KEY TO SUCCESS.
-QUANTITATIVE TEST
Refer R.S .Agrawal for this though I had not referred any book for maths because I am very comfortable at maths and reasoning and it was very easy for me to clear maths paper. I remember that there were examples of stream, time and work, probability etc
-TECHNICAL PAPER
Here the paper is based totally on C language and OS. I belong to EC branch. So I am not much into programming. In fact I m zero at programming yet I found some questions easy which were related to Linux and OS. So I could only answer 5 questions correctly but as the cut off for non cs-it students is usualy very low in wipro as 5-6 marks, I cleared the technical paper also. In questions related to C, I had no idea about the answers in technical test. As I was sure that my 5 answers were correct, I planned a strategy and ticked the option (B) in all remaining questions..!!! And Bingo..!!! It worked..!!
After the test, the results were announced at 1:00pm and yes !!!!!!!!! My name was announced in it..!!!!!!!! 150 cleared the aptitude test out of 1400. Then there was ppt from Wipro officials. Package is 2.5 to 2.7 lacs.
[2] TECHNICAL INTERVIEW: (6:15pm to 6:25 pm)
I appeared for it at appx 5:00 am. A smart man was there sitting in the cabin. I asked for permission to enter it. Then he told me to have the seat.
