Hi friends,
Myself Naveen from Sai spurthi institute of technology, sathupally. I am from ECE with 75%.
Written exam pattern:
I have attended TCS written exam on 14-08-2010. It was about 1 hour(35 questions)0.33 negative marking. Almost all the questions are only on analytical reasoning. Just 2 or 3 from aptitude. In this, time is the most important factor, if we manage the time for all the questions we can easily answer atleast some of the questions. So guys please refer R.S. Aggarwal aptitude and analytical reasoning books.
I have attempted 32 questions. Luckily i have cleared the written exam. I have got the mail on the day itself at 8pm. I was very happy but little bit tensed because i have to clear 3 more rounds. i.e TR, MR and HR.
Technical round:
I have been called for the further rounds on 18-08-2010. Being an ECE student, i have some fear how to face the technical round. I have prepared C, Data structure, Java(basics)on that three days gap only. He asked me around 45minutes.
Me: Told
Me: I said EDC, AC, DC, MCA, CMC
Me: Told
He: Do you have computer networks subject?
He: Okay explain ISO-OSI reference model
He: Okey
Me: Told
Me: I have told something i could'nt remember actually whether it is right or wrong i told very confidently.
I just waited for 5 minutes. I was called by someone to attend the next round i.e. MR one thing i wanna say you guys especially ECE guys, prepare our core subjects also. TCS interview pannel will be separate for IT and non-IT branches. They will be knowing all those things what he asked Okey.
MR round:
I went into the room and asked shall i sit sir. I think he was around 40 years old. He said yeah Naveen sit sit. I was bit tensed, what he is going to ask?
Me: Ok sir. Can i speak on my family.
Me: Told the reason. I think you can expect the reason behind it friends, movies etc.
I told the same thing, not directly but the theme is same.
Me: I said Venkatesh sir.
He: He was surprised and asked why?
Me: I told he will be doing only family oriented movies and message movies. So that i love watching his movies.
Me: Because of ECE student i'm not perfect on Java programming. So i told him that i will write in C sir.
He: Okey
I have waited for 5 minutes for the result. I just waited for 1hour to face HR round since it was a lunch break for all. I had my lunch and came.
HR round:
She: Yeah very gud aftn..Tell me about urself
She: What is your preferred job location?
She: Any questions?
She: Told for 3minutes.
By the God's grace. I was selected in TCS. I came to know this confirmation after 1 month exactly i.e 20-09-2010. I'm just waiting for the joining letter now. Hope will receive soon.
So guys the important tips for the TCS interviews are
1. Core subjects preparation
2. Positive attitude
3. Confidence(Good preparation gives you the full confidence)
4. Last but not least communication skills
