General - Interview
CTS TEST ON 31st OCTOBER AT HYDERABAD
hello friends,
I am Bhavani Sankar Mitta, pursuing my final year MCA from Intell Engg college, Anantapur. i am happy to say that i got placed in CTS. i had appeared for CTS interview which was conducted in TKR Engg., College, Hyd., thru cpm. nearly 2560 members attended the interview.
Now i am going to give my interview experience which is as follows,
the pattern will be
1. Writen test and
2. Tech cum HR Interview
for the written test,
the pattern is
a) Verbal 25 questions & 20 Min
b) Math 25 questions & 30 min
c)Logical Reasoning 20 question in 20 min
Verbal
Finding correct and incorrect sentences (10)
jumbled sentences(5)
Reading Comprehensions(2)
Analytical Reasoning cum Mental Ability
cubes & dice
logical deductions
picture based analogy
puzzles
venn diagrams
binay conversion(same but 0's and 1's are represented differently)
data sufficiency etc.,
the written exam is easy, but the toughest part is english section y becoz, they will give u 25 questions in which finding correct and incorrect sentences are difficult, as they give four options( eg., i &ii, i,ii & iii, i,iii&iv like this) to each question, and the sequence they give is at random, the first two will be of finding out correct sentences and then the next questions will be incorrect and then correct, like this 10 questions of this type will be mixed up and more over ppl will get easily confused by the procedure they followed. so take care in attending them and my suggestion is to go to RC section at last as it eats up the time.
my technical interview is as follows,
there are upto 25 panels nearlyand in my panel two members were there,
me: gud evening sir (with smile)
ints: is it gud evening ?(they surprised me, the time is around 4:25 pm see, here my presence of mind got counted) said ok gud evening, sit down
me: thank u sirs
